A number of puppies, say, born in a
trash can (6,3)
Solution – litter bin
A
reasonably straight forward charades type clue which includes an
abbreviation. For more about different
clue types, see the sidebar under the StumbleUpon button.
A
number of puppies is an example of a litter of young animals. You also have litters of kittens and
pigs. So here "say" is
indicating that "a number of puppies" is an example of the solution word
rather than a direct definition of it.
You
add something representing "born in" to litter and you get the
solution. "Born" is
represented by the letter "b" and "in" is added to get
"litter bin" which is another term for "trash can".
