Man perhaps going after a bride might be here (5)
I believe the answer is:
aisle
'bride might be here' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.
'man perhaps going after a' is the wordplay.
'man perhaps' becomes 'isle' (Isle of Man is an example).
'going after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'isle' put after 'a' is 'AISLE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for aisle that I've seen before include "Corridor" , "Passageway between pews" , "Part of a church" , "channel" , "Passageway between seating areas" .)
