Drunk spent a lot in an orgy over March (5,3,9)
I believe the answer is:
tired and emotional
'drunk' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'spent a lot in an orgy over march' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'spent' could be 'tired' (similar in meaning) and 'tired' is found within the answer.
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is found within the answer.
'lot' could be 'm' and 'm' is present in the answer.
'an' could be 'i' (Roman numeral for one) and 'i' is found in the answer.
'over' could be 'on' (physically on top of) and 'on' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tired and emotional that I've seen before include "a bit tipsy" , ""drunk"" .)
