Witty way to make tea sir (6)
I believe the answer is:
satire
'witty way' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
'make tea sir' is the wordplay.
'make' is an anagram indicator.
'tea'+'sir'='teasir'
'teasir' anagrammed gives 'SATIRE'.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for satire that I've seen before include "Irony or sarcasm in speech or writing" , "Humouous piece which ricicules" , "Sarcastic humour" , "Parody, spoof" , "Irony and ridicule in speech or writing" .)
