Confront Edward with aspects (7)
I believe the answer is:
faceted
'confront edward with aspects' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'confront edward' is the wordplay.
'confront' becomes 'face' (synonyms).
'edward' becomes 'ted'.
'face'+'ted'='FACETED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for faceted that I've seen before include "Sided" , "(As gem) many-sided" , "with many aspects" .)
