Thick digit attaches to small, expandable images (10)
I believe the answer is:
thumbnails
'small expandable images' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
'thick digit attaches' is the wordplay.
'thick digit' becomes 'thumb' (I've seen this before).
'attaches' becomes 'nails' (nailing is a kind of attaching).
'thumb'+'nails'='THUMBNAILS'
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
