All wrong about the business recession in this area (5)
I believe the answer is:
local
'this area' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'all wrong about the business recession' is the wordplay.
'wrong' indicates an anagram.
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'the business' becomes 'co'.
'recession' says the letters should be written backwards.
'co' back-to-front is 'oc'.
'all' is an anagram of 'lal'.
'lal' enclosing 'oc' is 'LOCAL'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for local that I've seen before include "Stopping regularly" , "hearing" , "Pub, maybe" , "Regional; nearby" , "Neighbourhood pub or resident" .)
