Emollient sauce on market outside Crown in Ventnor (8)
I believe the answer is:
lipsalve
'market outside crown in ventnor' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'emollient sauce on' is the wordplay.
'emollient' becomes 'salve' (I've seen this in another clue).
'sauce' becomes 'lip' (I've seen this in other clues).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'salve' put after 'lip' is 'LIPSALVE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lipsalve that I've seen before include "Ointment used around mouth" , "something to keep the chaps at bay" , "Ointment for part of mouth" , "Anti-chapping ointment" .)
