Place to store trophy given to the directors (8)
I believe the answer is:
cupboard
'place to store' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'trophy given to the directors' is the wordplay.
'trophy' becomes 'cup' (cup is a kind of trophy).
'given to' says to put letters next to each other.
'the directors' becomes 'board' (I've seen this before).
'cup'+'board'='CUPBOARD'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cupboard that I've seen before include "Type of cabinet" , "Piece of furniture in which things are stored" , "Piece of furniture used for storage" , "Furniture for storing provisions etc." , "Where Old Mother Hubbard went to get her poor dog a bone" .)
