Seems a show off can magically open doors! (6)
I believe the answer is:
sesame
'can magically open doors' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'seems a show off' is the wordplay.
'seems a' can be anagrammed to 'SESAME'.
Though, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sesame that I've seen before include "Plant with oil-rich seeds" , "'Open . . . . . .'' is a magic phrase to gain access" , "Open ...... is magic phrase for opening door in pantomime" , "A seed; a TV Street" , "Oil plant from Ali Baba's cry" .)
