Car reversing in fast bringing medicinal product (8)
I believe the answer is:
liniment
'medicinal product' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
'car reversing in fast' is the wordplay.
'car' becomes 'mini' (Mini Cooper).
'reversing' is a reversal indicator.
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'fast' becomes 'lent' (Lent is a period of fasting in Christianity).
'mini' written backwards gives 'inim'.
'inim' inserted into 'lent' is 'LINIMENT'.
'bringing' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for liniment that I've seen before include "Liquid for rubbing into skin" , "Lotion" , "Medicinal liquid for the muscles" , "Embrocation" , "application" .)
