R for Romeo? (8)
'romeo?' is the definition.
(Romeo can mean a lover)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
This clue might be a double definition.
'r for' is the first definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'romeo?' is the second definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for romantic that I've seen before include "Sentimental" , "Amatory" , "Visionary" , "Soulful or amourous idealist" , "as Darnay perhaps" .)
