Optimistic perspective got resident rejoining misses (4-6,7)
I believe the answer is:
rose-tinted glasses
'optimistic perspective got resident rejoining misses' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'got resident rejoining misses' is the wordplay.
'rejoining' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'rejoined' mean this).
'misses' becomes 'lasses' (lass is a kind of miss).
'got'+'resident'='gotresident'
'gotresident' is an anagram of 'rosetintedg'.
'rosetintedg'+'lasses'='ROSE-TINTED GLASSES'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
