Number with 'party in the county jail'? Out of the question (2,3,2)
I believe the answer is:
no can do
'number' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
''party in the county jail'? out of the question' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
''party' could be 'do' (do is a kind of party) and 'do' is located in the answer.
'jail'?' could be 'can' (the can is American slang for prison) and 'can' is located in the answer.
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is present in the answer.
A single letter 'n' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for no can do that I've seen before include "Bring-a-bottle party?" , "off-putting response" , "Unable to help" , "That's out of the question!" , "Nothing manageable" .)
