New car on end of drive gets transparent cover (6)
I believe the answer is:
cornea
'transparent cover' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.
'new car on end of drive' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates anagramming the letters.
'end of' indicates one should take the final letters.
The final letter of 'drive' is 'e'.
'car'+'on'+'e'='carone'
'carone' with letters rearranged gives 'CORNEA'.
'gets' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cornea that I've seen before include "Eyeball membrane" , "Membrane of the eye" , "Body part" , "Transparent covering of the eye" , "Front covering of eye" .)
