Might they hang around in the park with southern fried chicken? (6)
I believe the answer is:
swings
'the park with southern fried chicken?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'might they hang around in' is the wordplay.
'might they' becomes 'sws' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'hang' becomes 'hinge' (I've seen this before).
'around' indicates the central letters.
'in' is an insertion indicator.
The centre of 'hinge' is 'ing'.
'sws' enclosing 'ing' is 'SWINGS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for swings that I've seen before include "Moves back and forth or from side to side while suspended" , "What you might lose on them, you could gain on the roundabouts" , "Pieces of playground equipment" , "What you lose on these, you'll gain on the roundabouts" , "Pieces of playground apparatus" .)
