'Tea for two' rather than 'One alone'? (4)
I believe the answer is:
duet
'rather than one alone'?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'tea for two' is the wordplay.
'tea' becomes 't' (I've seen this in other clues).
'for' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'two' becomes 'due' (I've seen this in another clue).
't' after 'due' is 'DUET'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for duet that I've seen before include "Work for two players" , "two share it" , "Two-piece" , "Work for a couple" , "Performance by company, perhaps" .)
