Member turning to entertain a Highlander? (4)
I believe the answer is:
gael
'highlander?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'member turning to entertain a' is the wordplay.
'member' becomes 'leg' (member can mean a limb).
'turning' says the letters should be written backwards.
'to entertain' is an insertion indicator.
'leg' written backwards gives 'gel'.
'gel' going around 'a' is 'GAEL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for gael that I've seen before include "Highland Scot" , "Scottish highlander" , "Irish speaker?" , "Celtic language speaker" , "Celt of Ireland, the Scottish Highlands and the IOM" .)
