Anger over supporting French wine and what it could become? (7)
I believe the answer is:
vinegar
'what it could become?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'anger over supporting french wine' is the wordplay.
'anger' becomes 'rage' (rage is a kind of anger).
'over' says the letters should be written backwards.
'supporting' says to put letters next to each other (in a down clue, some letters go below others).
'french wine' becomes 'vin' ('wine' in French).
'rage' backwards is 'egar'.
'egar' after 'vin' is 'VINEGAR'.
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for vinegar that I've seen before include "Acetic acid" , "Healer with brown paper" , "Soured wine, cider etc." , "Acidic condiment" , "Pickling medium" .)
