Plate I ate, no mixed grill ultimately
I believe the answer is:
toenail
'plate' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both body parts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'i ate no mixed grill ultimately' is the wordplay.
'mixed' indicates an anagram.
'ultimately' suggests the final letters.
The final letter of 'grill' is 'l'.
'i'+'ate'+'no'='iateno'
'iateno' with letters rearranged gives 'toenai'.
'toenai'+'l'='TOENAIL'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for toenail that I've seen before include "Hard plate on part of foot" , "Single-digit growth" , "Growth from foot" , "Digital protection!" , "Part of body perhaps painted" .)
