Some dipso then? (3)
I believe the answer is:
sot
'some dipso then?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'some dipso then?' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some of the parts of the word are used).
'SOT' is hidden in the letters of 'dipso then'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sot that I've seen before include "A chronic drinker" , "Toper" , "drunk" , "One's often intoxicated" , "One drinks" .)
