Choose, from the bachelors? (6,3)
I believe the answer is:
single out
'choose' is the definition.
(singling out is a kind of choosing)
'from the bachelors?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'from' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is located in the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for single out that I've seen before include "record on release" , "Select from group" , "Pick" , "Choose" .)
