Weapon has wisdom to run (5,6)
I believe the answer is:
depth charge
'weapon' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'wisdom to run' is the wordplay.
'wisdom' becomes 'depth' (depth is a kind of wisdom).
'to run' becomes 'charge'.
'depth'+'charge'='DEPTH-CHARGE'
'has' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for depth charge that I've seen before include "Weapon against subs" , "Anti-submarine weapon" , "Anti-submarine bomb" , "Underwater bomb" , "Anti-submarine explosive" .)
