After honey, perhaps, be at the back of the queue (3)
I believe the answer is:
bee
'after honey' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'perhaps be at the back of the queue' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' is an anagram indicator.
'at' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'the back of the' indicates one should take the final letters.
The last letter of 'queue' is 'e'.
'be' put after 'e' is 'ebe'.
'ebe' with letters rearranged gives 'BEE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bee that I've seen before include "queen, perhaps" , "Useful insect" , "Busy buzzer" , "Stinging insect" , "See 17" .)
