Local lane close to Bagshot with five couples on it (7)
I believe the answer is:
twitten
'local lane' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'close to bagshot with five couples on it' is the wordplay.
'close to' says to take the final letters (the 'close' to the word).
'with' becomes 'w' (short for with).
'five couples' becomes 'ten' (five lots of two).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
The last letter of 'bagshot' is 't'.
'ten' put after 'it' is 'itten'.
't'+'w'+'itten'='TWITTEN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for twitten that I've seen is " country lane".)
