Confused answer covers this French commune (5)
I believe the answer is:
sedan
'french commune' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.
'confused answer covers' is the wordplay.
'covers' says the answer is hidden in the clue (I've seen 'covered' mean this (the answer is covered up by the clue)).
'SEDAN' can be found hidden inside 'confused answer'.
'this' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sedan that I've seen before include "Andes (anag.)" , "Saloon car in America" , "Once a mobile chair for Danes" , "American car" , "Dean's in an old conveyance" .)
