Revolutionary’s determined to get a smart game (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
chess set
'game' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.
'revolutionary's determined to get a smart' is the wordplay.
'revolutionary's' becomes 'Che's' (Che Guevara the Marxist revolutionary).
'determined' becomes 'set' (synonyms).
'to get' says to put letters next to each other.
'a smart' becomes 's' (this might be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'set' put after 's' is 'sset'.
'ches'+'sset'='CHESS SET'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for chess set that I've seen before include "Game with kings, queens and bishops" , "It's played on a chequered board with 32 pieces" , "It's played with kings, queens and bishops" , "King, pawns etc." , "men, along with the board" .)
