Web-footed fellow? (7)
I believe the answer is:
frogman
'web-footed fellow?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'footed fellow?' is the wordplay.
'footed' becomes 'frog' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'fellow?' becomes 'man' (fellow can mean a man).
'frog'+'man'='FROGMAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for frogman that I've seen before include "Underwater swimmer with breathing apparatus" , "Male diver" , "individual going under" , "He searches lakes and rivers" , "Swimmer employed in underwater operations" .)
