Tibetan flipped about regular booster in Honkers? (5)
I believe the answer is:
noses
'honkers?' is the definition.
(honker is a kind of nose)
'tibetan flipped about regular booster' is the wordplay.
'tibetan' becomes 'sn' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'flipped' is a reversal indicator.
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'regular' indicates alternate letters.
The alternate letters of 'booster' are 'ose'.
'sn' back-to-front is 'ns'.
'ns' placed around 'ose' is 'NOSES'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for noses that I've seen before include "Beaks, conks" , "Olfactory organs" , "Pries" , "Proboscises" , "Hooters" .)
