A tourist initally left with worker - one about to find ocean (8)
I believe the answer is:
atlantic
'ocean' is the definition.
(Atlantic is an example)
'a tourist initally left with worker one about' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is located in the answer.
'left' could be 'l' (common abbreviation) and 'l' is located in the answer.
'one' could be 'i' (Roman numeral) and 'i' is found in the answer.
'about' could be 'c' (abbreviation for circa) and 'c' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'att' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to find' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for atlantic that I've seen before include "Ocean from Arctic to Antarctic" , "Big sea" , "deep water" , "main" , "Tilt a can at the ocean" .)
