African playing the piano around lunchtime? (9)
I believe the answer is:
ethiopian
'african' is the definition.
(Ethiopian is an example)
'playing the piano around lunchtime?' is the wordplay.
'playing' is an anagram indicator.
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'lunchtime?' becomes 'i' (1pm could be I on a clock with Roman numerals).
'the'+'piano'='thepiano'
'thepiano' is an anagram of 'ethiopan'.
'ethiopan' going around 'i' is 'ETHIOPIAN'.
(Other definitions for ethiopian that I've seen before include "Like Emperor Haile Selassie?" , "Citizen of north-east African state" , "From, eg, Addis Ababa" , "African national" , "from African country" .)
