Some bawdy language, Bob! (5)
I believe the answer is:
dylan
'some bawdy language bob' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'some bawdy language bob' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'DYLAN' can be found hidden inside 'bawdy language bob'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dylan that I've seen before include "Bob (singer) - Thomas (author)" , "Bob --, Nobel prize winner" , "Bob (musician) or Thomas (poet)" , "American singer-songwriter Bob, b. 1941" , "Bob Zimmerman" .)
