Keep the eggs warm, perhaps (3)
I believe the answer is:
sit
'keep' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with social activities as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'the eggs warm perhaps' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'si' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sit that I've seen before include "Model" , "To take the test" , "Take a chair" , "Pose for painter" , "I sell badly the cotton yarn" .)
