Initially dislodged, small girl back on bed below? (7)
I believe the answer is:
abyssal
'initially dislodged' is the definition.
The answer and definition are different parts of speech. However, past participle verbs and adjectives can sometimes mean the same thing.
'small girl back on bed below?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'small' could be 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size) and 's' is present in the answer.
'girl' could be 'sal' (feminine given name) and 'sal' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'aby' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for abyssal that I've seen before include "regarding ocean trenches?" , "Bottomless" , "Belonging to ocean depths" , "on the bed" .)
