Farm implement in soft bog son removed (6)
I believe the answer is:
plough
'farm implement' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'in soft bog son removed' is the wordplay.
'in soft' becomes 'p' (musical abbreviation for 'piano'. I am not sure about the 'in' bit.**).
'bog' becomes 'slough' (slough is a kind of bog).
'son' becomes 's'.
'removed' suggests deleting specific letters.
'slough' with 's' taken away is 'lough'.
'p'+'lough'='PLOUGH'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for plough that I've seen before include "fail exam" , "Farm tool for cutting furrows" , "Agricultural implement" , "Farm tool and group of stars" , "Farm tool and star formation" .)
