Funky vibe welcomed by peer's inamorata? (8)
I believe the answer is:
lovebird
'inamorata?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'funky vibe welcomed by peer's' is the wordplay.
'funky' is an anagram indicator (an unusual form of the letters).
'welcomed by' is an insertion indicator (letters welcomed inside).
'peer' becomes 'lord' (lord is a type of peer).
'vibe' with letters rearranged gives 'vebi'.
'vebi' placed into 'lord' is 'LOVEBIRD'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lovebird that I've seen before include "Small green parrot" , "Small (affectionate) parrot" , "Canoodler" , "Small African parrot" .)
