Uncontrollable kid? Teen brat joins RN: life changing! (6,8)
I believe the answer is:
enfant terrible
'uncontrollable kid?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'teen brat joins rn life changing' is the wordplay.
'joins' says to put letters next to each other.
'changing' is an anagram indicator.
'teen' put after 'brat' is 'bratteen'.
'bratteen'+'rn'+'life'='bratteenrnlife'
'bratteenrnlife' with letters rearranged gives 'ENFANT TERRIBLE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for enfant terrible that I've seen before include "Difficult issue in France" , "one that causes embarrassment" , "nonconformist" , "scamp" , "subject of controversy? - with 10a" .)
