Eye men intending to keep woman in Aden (6)
I believe the answer is:
yemeni
'woman in aden' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'eye men intending to keep' is the wordplay.
'to keep' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'YEMENI' is hidden in the letters of 'eye men intending'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for yemeni that I've seen before include "Native of a country on the Arabian Peninsula" , "Native of, eg, Aden" , "Inhabitant of the country at the southern end of the Arabia" , "from the Middle East" , "Person from Aden perhaps" .)
