People in endless butane production? (5)
I believe the answer is:
bantu
'people in endless butane production?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'endless butane production?' is the wordplay.
'endless' means to remove the last letter.
'production?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'production' mean this).
'butane' with its last letter removed is 'butan'.
'butan' anagrammed gives 'BANTU'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bantu that I've seen before include "Widely-spoken group of African languages" , "Niger-Congo language" , "Family of southern African languages" , "Group of widely spoken languages of southern Africa" , "Language group of central and southern Africa" .)
