Feel a palm could be used as a national symbol (9)
I believe the answer is:
mapleleaf
'as a national symbol' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'feel a palm could be' is the wordplay.
'could be' is an anagram indicator.
'feel'+'a'+'palm'='feelapalm'
'feelapalm' anagrammed gives 'MAPLELEAF'.
'used' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
