Where the plug goes for a receiver (6)
I believe the answer is:
socket
This clue could be a double definition.
'where the plug goes' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.
'receiver' is the second 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?
'for a' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for socket that I've seen before include "Electricity point" , "Cavity for a plug" , "Receptacle where something is inserted" , "Light bulb holder" , "Plug hole?" .)
