For example, nothing is extremes of thoughtfulness with such types (7)
I believe the answer is:
egoists
'such types' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'for example nothing is extremes of thoughtfulness' is the wordplay.
'for example' becomes 'e.g.' (short for 'exempli gratia', 'for example' in Latin).
'nothing' becomes 'O' (looks like zero - 0).
'extremes of' means to remove the middle letters (only the letters at the extremes of the word).
'thoughtfulness' with its centre taken out is 'ts'.
'eg'+'o'+'is'+'ts'='EGOISTS'
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for egoists that I've seen is " Selfish, vain types".)
