Envoy Europeans imprison as spy (6)
I believe the answer is:
voyeur
'spy' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'envoy europeans imprison' is the wordplay.
'imprison' indicates a hidden word (I've seen 'imprisoning' mean this (the answer is imprisoned within the clue)).
'VOYEUR' is hidden within 'envoy europeans'.
'as' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for voyeur that I've seen before include "Person who watches others in secret" , "A secret spectator, perhaps for sexual gratification" , "A secret spectator taking pleasure in it" , "One who spies on others for sexual gratification" , "One who obtains sexual pleasure watching others" .)
