Abel seen running by those living in Tripoli? (8)
I believe the answer is:
lebanese
'those living in tripoli?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'abel seen running' is the wordplay.
'running' is an anagram indicator.
'abel'+'seen'='abelseen'
'abelseen' is an anagram of 'LEBANESE'.
'by' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lebanese that I've seen before include "People from the cedar country" , "Native of Beirut, say" , "Nationality of citizens of Beirut" , "One from Beirut, say" , "Middle Eastern" .)
