Sign under container for couples (8)
I believe the answer is:
binaries
'couples' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both natural objects as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'sign under container' is the wordplay.
'sign' becomes 'Aries' (star sign).
'under' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'container' becomes 'bin' (bin is a type of container).
'aries' after 'bin' is 'BINARIES'.
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
