Crossword Genius

European' could be 'French (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

norman

I believe this is a double definition.

'european' is the first definition.
(Norman is an example)

'be french' is the second definition.
(Normandy is a part of France)

'could' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for norman that I've seen before include "Boy's name" , "Person from France" , "British comedian, once a cult figure in Albania, d. 2010" , "he invaded England" , "Romanesque architectural style" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
