Fruit? Seems to have lost first two (5)
I believe the answer is:
pears
'fruit?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'to have lost first two' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'first' could be 'a' (first letter of the alphabet) and 'a' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'pers' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'seems' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pears that I've seen before include "Juicy fruits - spare them" , "Sweet juicy fruits" , "Fruit trees" , "Fruit - singer with ..." .)
