Edgy Italian refers to identical inspiration almost simultaneously (2,3,4,6)
I believe the answer is:
in the same breath
'almost simultaneously' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'edgy italian refers to identical inspiration' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'italian' could be 'i' (abbreviation for Italian) and 'i' is present in the answer.
'identical' could be 'thesame' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'thesame' is found in the answer.
'inspiration' could be 'breath' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'breath' is present in the answer.
A single letter 'n' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for in the same breath that I've seen before include "Together" , "with a single blow?" , "Without breaking off" , "needing no further inspiration?" .)
