In Ireland, a girl gets love (4)
I believe the answer is:
mayo
'in ireland' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'a girl gets love' is the wordplay.
'a girl' becomes 'may' (**).
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'love' becomes 'o' (In tennis, 'love' means 'zero').
'may'+'o'='MAYO'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mayo that I've seen before include "Irish county (county town, Castlebar)" , "radio presenter" , "Thick creamy dressing" , "You'll find it in the Emerald Isle" , "Saucy thing" .)
