Magnificent stag (8)
I believe the answer is:
imperial
This clue might be a double definition.
'magnificent' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'stag' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for imperial that I've seen before include "Majestic, like UK gallon" , "measure" , "Like some rulers" , "Sovereign - old Russian gold coin - type of beard" , "Regal - type of beard" .)
