'bony' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'nag ordered to turn left then a right' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates an anagram.
'to turn left then' becomes 'ula' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'a right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'nag' is an anagram of 'ang'.
'ang'+'ula'+'r'='ANGULAR'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for angular that I've seen before include "stiff" , "Rawboned" , "Bony, awkward" , "Scrawny" , "Bony - lean - gaunt" .)
