Forename Carson endlessly gets wrong (5)
I believe the answer is:
oscar
'forename' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'carson endlessly gets wrong' is the wordplay.
'endlessly' means to remove the last letter.
'gets wrong' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'got wrong' mean this).
'carson' with its final letter removed is 'carso'.
'carso' with letters rearranged gives 'OSCAR'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for oscar that I've seen before include "Mr Wilde - film award" , "Film award; --- Hammerstein" , "Note" , "Boy" , "Some players are given this" .)
