Has he an enviable figure? (5)
I believe the answer is:
oscar
'an enviable figure?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'has he' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'he' could be 'car' and 'car' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'os' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for oscar that I've seen before include "-- Wilde, author" , "The familiar Mr Wilde, playwright" , "Cinema award" , "Title of Hollywood Academy award" , "Boy" .)
