Helpful person's reorganised random sailor's property (6,3,6)
I believe the answer is:
bricks and mortar
'property' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'helpful person's reorganised random sailor's' is the wordplay.
'helpful person's' becomes 'brick's' (brick can mean a reliable person).
'reorganised' is an anagram indicator.
'sailor' becomes 'tar' (tar can mean a sailor).
'random' anagrammed gives 'andmor'.
'bricks'+'andmor'+'tar'='BRICKS-AND-MORTAR'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bricks and mortar that I've seen before include "buildings" , "Housing" .)
