Tailor swallows last piece of pork kebab (6)
I believe the answer is:
skewer
'kebab' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.
'tailor swallows last piece of pork' is the wordplay.
'tailor' becomes 'sewer' (I've seen this in another clue).
'swallows' is an insertion indicator.
'last piece of' says to take the final letters.
The final letter of 'pork' is 'k'.
'sewer' enclosing 'k' is 'SKEWER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for skewer that I've seen before include "Long metal pin" , "part of barbecue" , "Small spit for meat" , "Kebab-securer" , "Spear" .)
