Father of Juliet and maybe Paul, etc. (7)
I believe the answer is:
capulet
'father of juliet' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'maybe paul etc' is the wordplay.
'maybe' indicates an anagram.
'paul'+'etc'='pauletc'
'pauletc' is an anagram of 'CAPULET'.
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for capulet that I've seen before include "Juliet's house" , "Family in play" , "Shakespeare's Juliet's family name" , "Verona family" , "lover's house" .)
