Might she be bowled over? (6)
I believe the answer is:
maiden
'might' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.
'she be bowled over?' is the wordplay.
'she' becomes 'nedi' ().
'be' becomes 'am'.
'bowled over?' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (I've seen 'bowled over' mean this).
'nedi'+'am'='nediam'
'nediam' written backwards gives 'MAIDEN'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for maiden that I've seen before include "Unmated; runless over" , "I named (anag) - young woman" , "First (speech)" , "No runs for the unmarried lady's over" , "Miss" .)
