Bad-tempered is right? Wrong! (7)
I believe the answer is:
tigrish
'bad-tempered' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'is right? wrong' is the wordplay.
'wrong' is an anagram indicator.
'is'+'right'='isright'
'isright' with letters rearranged gives 'TIGRISH'.
