Pub dinner feels wrong without whiskey for Aussie native (6-3,6)
I believe the answer is:
funnel-web spider
'aussie native' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'pub dinner feels wrong without whiskey' is the wordplay.
'wrong' indicates anagramming the letters.
'without' is an insertion indicator ('without' can be similar in meaning to 'outside').
'whiskey' becomes 'w' (alpha bravo charlie delta ...).
'pub'+'dinner'+'feels'='pubdinnerfeels'
'pubdinnerfeels' anagrammed gives 'funnelebspider'.
'funnelebspider' going around 'w' is 'FUNNEL-WEB SPIDER'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
