Who puts clothes on some furniture? (7)
I believe the answer is:
dresser
'furniture?' is the definition.
(I know that dresser is a type of furniture)
'who puts clothes on some' is the wordplay.
'who' becomes 'dr' (from TV series Doctor Who).
'puts' becomes 'slots' (both can mean to position into place).
'clothes' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters) (only the letters which clothe the word remain).
'on' is an insertion indicator.
'some' becomes 'eer' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'slots' with its middle taken out is 'ss'.
'ss' put into 'eer' is 'esser'.
'dr'+'esser'='DRESSER'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dresser that I've seen before include "Chest of drawers" , "Open-shelved cupboard for displaying dishes" , "One covering up" , "clotheshorse?" , "Surgical assistant" .)
