Beggar I am unable to reform? (9)
I believe the answer is:
mendicant
'beggar i am' is the definition.
'mendicant' can be an answer for 'beggar' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'i am' bit.
'unable to reform?' is the wordplay.
'unable' becomes 'icant' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'reform?' becomes 'mend' (I've seen this in another clue).
'icant' put after 'mend' is 'MENDICANT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mendicant that I've seen before include "Begging" , "Beggar" .)
