Death notice written about extremely ropey individual (8)
I believe the answer is:
obituary
This might be a double definition.
'death notice' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'written about extremely ropey individual' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for obituary that I've seen before include "Brief published biography of recently deceased person" , "Brief newspaper account of deceased person's life" , "Brief newspaper account of prominent person after death" , "note of closure?" , "Newspaper article about person recently dead" .)
