Wasp flying around right and left in urban area (6)
I believe the answer is:
sprawl
'urban area' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both human attributes as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'wasp flying around right and left' is the wordplay.
'flying' is an anagram indicator (letters fly around into new positions).
'around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'right' becomes 'r' (abbreviation).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'left' becomes 'l' (common abbreviation).
'wasp' anagrammed gives 'spaw'.
'spaw' going around 'r' is 'spraw'.
'spraw'+'l'='SPRAWL'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sprawl that I've seen before include "10 with one's limbs extended" , "Loll, stretch out" , "Spread out in ungainly way" , "Sit with one's limbs spread out" , "What stragglers do" .)
