Thanks for company of Mexican tucker (4)
I believe the answer is:
taco
'mexican tucker' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'thanks for company' is the wordplay.
'thanks' becomes 'ta' (UK informal version of 'thank you').
'for' says to put letters next to each other.
'company' becomes 'co' (abbreviation).
'ta'+'co'='TACO'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for taco that I've seen before include "Coat with Mexican dish" , "Tortilla with savoury filling" , "quick dish" , "Mexican filled pancake" , "Mexican snack" .)
