Monopolise source of energy drinks for army chief (6)
I believe the answer is:
shogun
'army chief' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'monopolise source of energy drinks' is the wordplay.
'monopolise' becomes 'hog' (I've seen this before).
'source of energy' becomes 'sun' (I've seen this in another clue).
'drinks' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters are consumed or drunk).
'hog' going inside 'sun' is 'SHOGUN'.
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shogun that I've seen before include "Leader in feudal Japan" , "Hereditary Japanese military governor" , "Heredity commander of Japanese army" , "Dominant Japanese" , "Foreign C-in-C" .)
