Smaller motorbikes scorned by daughter who wanders around gloomily (5)
I believe the answer is:
mopes
'smaller motorbikes' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mopes that I've seen before include "Isn't happy" , "Hangs about moodily" , "Hangs around apathetically" , "Behaves in a depressed or aimless way" , "Feels dejected" .)
