Nights for the telling? (7)
I believe the answer is:
arabian
This clue could be a double definition.
'nights for' is the first definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'telling?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are adjectives, I can't see how they can define each other.
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for arabian that I've seen before include "Sea in the northwestern part of the Indian Ocean" , "Darley, for one" , "-- Gulf; -- Nights" , "Saudi, perhaps" , "Prized horse" .)
