Turn head of terminally lovesick sheep? (9)
I believe the answer is:
livestock
'sheep?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both animals as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'turn head of terminally lovesick' is the wordplay.
'turn' indicates anagramming the letters.
'head of' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'terminally' is 't'.
't'+'lovesick'='tlovesick'
'tlovesick' is an anagram of 'LIVESTOCK'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for livestock that I've seen before include "(Domestic) animals in general" , "Farm animals" , "Animals kept for use or profit" .)
