Songbird loud climbing on tile in Bow (6)
I believe the answer is:
titfer
'tile in bow' is the definition.
'titfer' can be an answer for 'tile' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'in bow' bit.
'songbird loud climbing on' is the wordplay.
'songbird' becomes 'tit' (tit is a type of songbird).
'loud' becomes 'f' (short for forte - 'loud' in music).
'climbing' says the letters should be written in reverse (in a down clue, letters climb up).
'on' becomes 're' ('on' can be mean 'with reference to').
're' written backwards gives 'er'.
'tit'+'f'+'er'='TITFER'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for titfer that I've seen before include "Fitter (anag.)" , "Headgear" , "Cockney rhyming slang for hat" , "tile" , "Hat (sl.)" .)
