Simple getting professorship and somewhere to relax (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
easy chair
'somewhere to relax' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'simple getting professorship' is the wordplay.
'simple' becomes 'easy' (similar in meaning).
'getting' says to put letters next to each other.
'professorship' becomes 'chair' (synonyms).
'easy'+'chair'='EASY-CHAIR'
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for easy chair that I've seen before include "Lounge feature" , "ambitious professor avoids" , "nice spot to be in" , "Comfy seat" , "It's comfortable to sit in - sounds like it" .)
