Of the professional section relatively speaking? (2,10)
I believe the answer is:
in proportion
'of' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'the professional section relatively speaking?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is found within the answer.
'professional' could be 'pro' (abbreviation) and 'pro' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
