Soap hotel left out working eventually (5,2)
I believe the answer is:
later on
'eventually' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'soap hotel left out working' is the wordplay.
'soap' becomes 'lather' (synonyms).
'hotel' becomes 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'left' indicates named letters should be taken away (some letters have left).
'out working' becomes 'on' (e.g. a machine is working or on. I am not sure about the 'out' bit.).
'lather' with 'h' taken out is 'later'.
'later'+'on'='LATER ON'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for later on that I've seen before include "In the fullness of time" , "Afterwards" , "this evening?" , "At a subsequent time" , "in the future" .)
