Fishy contribution from Schubert (4)
I believe the answer is:
chub
'fishy contribution' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.
'from schubert' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'CHUB' is hidden in the letters of 'schubert'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for chub that I've seen before include "River fish; rhymes with public house" , "Fat relative of the carp" , "Thick-bodied river fish" , "European freshwater fish" , "Small river fish of the carp family" .)
