Master coming to a mistaken conclusion? (3)
I believe the answer is:
man
'mistaken conclusion?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.
'master coming to a' is the wordplay.
'master' becomes 'M' (common abbreviation eg MA, Master of Art).
'coming to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a' becomes 'an'.
'm'+'an'='MAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for man that I've seen before include "us?" , "Vassal; chess piece" , "See 24" , "race" , "Adult human male" .)
