Low luminescence initially in hours of darkness? This might help (9)
I believe the answer is:
moonlight
'this might help' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with social activities as well as being verbs in their base form.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'low luminescence initially in hours of darkness?' is the wordplay.
'low' becomes 'moo' (both can mean to make the noise of a cow).
'initially' indicates taking the first letters.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'hours of darkness?' becomes 'night' (I've seen this before).
The initial letter of 'luminescence' is 'l'.
'l' going within 'night' is 'nlight'.
'moo'+'nlight'='MOONLIGHT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for moonlight that I've seen before include "name for sonata" , "do an extra job" , "Illumination from the earth's satellite" , "Beethoven's Op. twenty seven/two sonata" , "Burn the midnight oil" .)
