Suit for the naval officer (11)
I believe the answer is:
quarterdeck
This might be a double definition.
'suit' is the first 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 don't see?
'naval officer' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
'for the' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for quarterdeck that I've seen before include "where only naval officers may go" , "for officers on board" , "Part of warship used by officers" , "Stern area of a naval vessel, reserved for officers" , "that may be saluted" .)
