Group of famous people in corridor with some badly-off Americans? (4,2,4)
I believe the answer is:
hall of fame
'group' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.
'of famous people in corridor with some badly-off americans?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is found within the answer.
'corridor' could be 'hall' (hall is a kind of corridor) and 'hall' is found within the answer.
'some' could be 'a' and 'a' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for hall of fame that I've seen is " place for the great and good".)
