Some clothing for sale? (3)
I believe the answer is:
lot
'sale?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
'some clothing for' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'LOT' can be found hidden inside 'clothing for'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lot that I've seen before include "Parcel - collection" , "large quantity" , "Portion in life" , "shower" , "Piece of ground" .)
