European plant with edible root (5)
I believe the answer is:
swede
I believe this is a quadruple definition!!
'european' is the first definition.
(I know that Swede is a type of european)
'plant' is the second definition.
(swede is a kind of plant)
'with' acts as a link.
'edible' is the third definition.
The definition and answer can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'root' is the fourth definition.
(I know that swede is a type of turnip)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for swede that I've seen before include "Nobel for one" , "in Northern Europe" , "Scandinavian national" , "A turnip, or a Scandinavian" , "Strindberg, for example" .)
