On the table, is this number a mere bagatelle? (3)
I believe the answer is:
pin
This could be a double definition.
'on the table is this number a mere' is the first definition.
'pin' can be an answer for 'number' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the rest of the definition.
'bagatelle?' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pin that I've seen before include "Badge" , "form of identification" , "Needle" , "Stick with flag placed in golf hole" , "Skittle; chess attack" .)
