Many enterprises need foreign capital (3)
I believe the answer is:
yen
'foreign capital' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'many enterprises need' is the wordplay.
'need' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (I've seen 'needs' mean this).
'YEN' is hidden within 'many enterprises'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for yen that I've seen before include "Intense longing" , "Long for a coin" , "Long for Japanese money?" , "Longing, hankering after" , "Intense desire for Japanese money" .)
