Two table items in a shop window? (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
plate glass
'a shop window?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'two table items in' is the wordplay.
'two table' becomes 'glas' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'items' becomes 'plates' (I have seen 'Items of crockery ' mean 'plates' so perhaps 'items' could also mean 'plates').
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'glas' going within 'plates' is 'PLATE-GLASS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for plate glass that I've seen before include "Material for eg shop windows" , "shop-front?" , "Window material" .)
