Shouting from one imprisoned by beak? (5)
I believe the answer is:
noise
'shouting' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'one imprisoned by beak?' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'imprisoned by' is an insertion indicator.
'beak?' becomes 'nose' (beak is a kind of nose).
'i' put into 'nose' is 'NOISE'.
'from' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for noise that I've seen before include "Loud or disturbing sound" , "Racket, din" , "Public talk" , "Unpleasant sounds" , "Clatter" .)
