Clear direction given twice for person with exclusive right (8)
I believe the answer is:
patentee
'person with exclusive right' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'clear direction given twice' is the wordplay.
'clear' becomes 'patent' (synonyms).
'direction given' becomes 'e' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'twice' says to double the letters.
'e' duplicated is 'ee'.
'patent'+'ee'='PATENTEE'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for patentee that I've seen before include "One who's registered an invention" , "One has certain rights" , "One registering an invention" .)
