Stop on Australian base residence (8)
I believe the answer is:
bungalow
'residence' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'stop on australian base' is the wordplay.
'stop on' becomes 'bung' (bung is a kind of stop. I am not sure about the 'on' bit.).
'australian' becomes 'A' (common abbreviation).
'base' becomes 'low' (synonyms).
'bung'+'a'+'low'='BUNGALOW'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bungalow that I've seen before include "Single-storey home" , "Single-storey house" , "One-storied house" , "cottage" , "One-storeyed building" .)
