Adored as no longer so lazy? (7)
I believe the answer is:
blessed
'lazy?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for blessed that I've seen before include "Sanctified" , "Highly favoured or fortunate" , "Endowed" , "Made lucky - made holy" , "in heaven" .)
