A Scotsman who lives in Dubai? (4)
I believe the answer is:
arab
'a scotsman who lives in dubai?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'a scotsman' is the wordplay.
'scotsman' becomes 'rab' (Rab is a Scottish name).
'a'+'rab'='ARAB'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for arab that I've seen before include "One from the Middle East or North Africa" , "One from the Middle East, say" , "Horse of a breed originating in the Middle East" , "Fine horse breed" , "Saudi or Omani, perhaps" .)
