Entertainment from American singer with a repeat for English (5)
I believe the answer is:
cheer
'entertainment' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'american singer with a repeat for english' is the wordplay.
'american singer' becomes 'che' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'a repeat' becomes 'r' (abbreviation).
'for' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'english' becomes 'E' (abbreviation).
'r' after 'e' is 'er'.
'che'+'er' is 'CHEER'.
'from' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cheer that I've seen before include "Applaud and acclaim" , "Shout of praise or joy" , "Shout encouragingly" , "Festive food and drink" , "entertainment" .)
