Kitchen items break when overturned (4)
I believe the answer is:
pans
'kitchen items' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'break when overturned' is the wordplay.
'break' becomes 'snap' (snapping is a kind of breaking).
'when overturned' is a reversal indicator.
'snap' in reverse letter order is 'PANS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pans that I've seen before include "Criticises" , "vessels" , "kitchen equipment" , "roasts" , "Kitchen utensils" .)
