Humongous T. rex demolished a brewed lager (5-5)
I believe the answer is:
extra-large
'humongous' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
't rex demolished a brewed lager' is the wordplay.
'demolished' is an anagram indicator.
'brewed' indicates anagramming the letters.
't'+'rex'='trex'
'trex' with letters rearranged gives 'extr'.
'lager' with letters rearranged gives 'large'.
'extr'+'a'+'large'='EXTRA-LARGE'
Can you help me to learn more?
