Nancy's private conversation? (4-1-4)
I believe the answer is:
tete-a-tete
'nancy's private conversation?' is the definition.
(French term - Nancy is a French city)
'private conversation?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'private conversation?' could be 'tete' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'tete' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tete-a-tete that I've seen before include "Informal chat" , "Private meeting" , "Private conversation between two French people" , "Private couple's conversation" , "One-to-one meeting" .)
