Light wife without hourglass figure? (10)
I believe the answer is:
weightless
'light' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'wife without hourglass figure?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'wife' could be 'w' (abbreviation) and 'w' is present in the answer.
'without' could be 'less' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'less' is located in the answer.
'figure?' could be 'eight' (eight is a number) and 'eight' is present in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for weightless that I've seen before include "like people in space station" , "Unimportant" , "Floating" , "like astronauts?" , "In zero gravity" .)
