Superior aristocrat occupying singular times (6)
I believe the answer is:
snobby
'superior' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'aristocrat occupying singular times' is the wordplay.
'aristocrat' becomes 'nob' (nob can mean an aristocrat).
'occupying' is an insertion indicator (inserted letters occupy or enter the word).
'singular' becomes 's' (abbreviation in grammar).
'times' becomes 'by' (both can mean 'multiplied by').
's'+'by'='sby'
'nob' placed inside 'sby' is 'SNOBBY'.
(Other definitions for snobby that I've seen before include "superior" , "socially pretentious" , "Snooty, stuck-up" .)
