Got up with small romantic gifts (5)
I believe the answer is:
roses
'romantic gifts' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'got up with small' is the wordplay.
'got up' becomes 'rose' (I've seen this before).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'rose'+'s'='ROSES'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for roses that I've seen before include "Bloomers" , "Thorny shrubs with bright flowers" , "Flowers of 15th century war" , "the wars" , "''. . . . . are red, violets are blue''" .)
