Seer contributing to Crome Yellow (3)
I believe the answer is:
eye
'seer' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'contributing to crome yellow' is the wordplay.
'contributing to' indicates a hidden word (the answer contributes to part of the clue ).
'EYE' is hidden in the letters of 'crome yellow'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eye that I've seen before include "Twenty four ac emphasises it" , "Bit of a potato (or a needle?)" , "Organ of vision" , "Centre of storm" , "Centre of hurricane" .)
