Is European allowed to dance round it in spring? (7)
I believe the answer is:
maypole
'is european allowed to dance round it in spring?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'european allowed to dance round it in spring?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'european' could be 'pole' (someone from Poland) and 'pole' is present in the answer.
'spring?' could be 'may' (I've seen this before) and 'may' is found in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for maypole that I've seen before include "focal point for dancers" , "Feature of seasonal dance" , "It's danced round with ribbons" , "In celebration, one danced round" , "Rudge's Inn," .)
