She contemplates getting a cow (9)
I believe the answer is:
ruminator
'contemplates getting a cow' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'she' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'she' could be 'mina' and 'mina' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for ruminator that I've seen is " Someone thinking".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
