For which food monkeys go ape? (6)
I believe the answer is:
banana
'for' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'food monkeys go ape?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'food' could be 'b' (B is an example) and 'b' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'anana' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'which' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for banana that I've seen before include "Small politically unstable country dominated by foreign companies" , "Fruit grown in hands" , "Fruity type" , "Tropical yellow fruit" , "Fruit item" .)
