Cohabiters make dull friends (9)
I believe the answer is:
flatmates
'cohabiters' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'dull friends' is the wordplay.
'dull' becomes 'flat' (similar in meaning).
'friends' becomes 'mates' (mate is a kind of friend).
'flat'+'mates'='FLATMATES'
'make' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for flatmates that I've seen is " Home sharers".)
I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
