Question related to coach's raw material before transformation? (7)
I believe the answer is:
pumpkin
'coach's raw material before transformation?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'question related' is the wordplay.
'question' becomes 'pump' (pumping is a kind of questioning).
'related' becomes 'kin' ('kin' can be similar in meaning to 'related').
'pump'+'kin'='PUMPKIN'
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pumpkin that I've seen before include "It's a Halloween tradition" , "Type of squash" , "Gourd - source of Cinderella's coach" , "Large type of gourd" , "Large round fruit - coach for Cinderella?" .)
