Dies in a way reminiscent of Caesar? (4)
I believe the answer is:
ides
'reminiscent of caesar?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how they can define each other.
'dies in a way' is the wordplay.
'in a way' indicates anagramming the letters.
'dies' is an anagram of 'IDES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ides that I've seen before include "day in Rome" , "May 15, for example" , "Roman calendar day roughly in the middle of the month" , "Mid-month date in ancient Rome" , "Julius Caesar was told to beware the . . . . of March" .)
