Describing Hamlet and his difficulty (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

danish

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'describing hamlet' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'and his difficulty' is the wordplay.
'difficulty' is an anagram indicator.
'and'+'his'='andhis'
'andhis' with letters rearranged gives 'DANISH'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for danish that I've seen before include "Had sin with this nationality?" , "Flat cake - and party's his! (anag)" , "course includes article / noun combination" , "_ blue; type of cheese" , "Southern Scandinavian pastry" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
