Thingamabob's in goal (6)
I believe the answer is:
object
This might be a double definition.
'thingamabob's' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'goal' is the second definition.
(object is a kind of goal)
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for object that I've seen before include "Thing or target" , "Idea" , "Argue against - purpose" , "Aim - to argue against - something" , "Express dissent to the thing?" .)
