Massage inside vehicle upset residential community (6)
I believe the answer is:
suburb
'residential community' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'massage inside vehicle upset' is the wordplay.
'massage' becomes 'rub' (rub can mean to massage).
'inside' is an insertion indicator.
'vehicle' becomes 'bus' (public transport vehicle).
'upset' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'rub' placed within 'bus' is 'brubus'.
'brubus' backwards is 'SUBURB'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for suburb that I've seen before include "City's outer district" , "Residential district on a city's outskirts" , "Present (bill); melt down (fat)" , "Residential district on the outskirts of a city" , "Residential city area" .)
