Drop mince off in Monaco, say (9)
I believe the answer is:
princedom
'monaco say' is the definition.
(monaco is a kind of princedom)
'drop mince off' is the wordplay.
'off' is an anagram indicator.
'drop'+'mince'='dropmince'
'dropmince' with letters rearranged gives 'PRINCEDOM'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Another definition for princedom that I've seen is " Principality".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
