Bubbly business writing copyright beforehand (8)
I believe the answer is:
prosecco
'bubbly' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'business writing copyright beforehand' is the wordplay.
'business' becomes 'co' (short for company).
'writing' becomes 'prose' (I have seen 'Ordinary writing ' mean 'prose' so perhaps 'writing' could also mean 'prose').
'copyright' becomes 'C' (as in the copyright symbol, a C in a circle).
'beforehand' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'prose'+'c'='prosec'
'co' after 'prosec' is 'PROSECCO'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for prosecco that I've seen before include "Sparkling wine from Italy" , "white wine" , "Italian bubbly" , "drink" .)
