Self-esteem of lions in group? (5)
I believe the answer is:
pride
This clue might be a double definition.
'self-esteem' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'lions in group?' is the second definition.
'pride' can be an answer for 'lions' (pride is the collective noun for a group of lions). I am unsure of the 'in group?' bit.
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pride that I've seen before include "Arrogance - self-respect" , "They say it comes before a fall" , "Novel by Jane Austen" , "big cats" , "Hubris" .)
