Feel as ticklish but slightly less resilient (7)
I believe the answer is:
elastic
'resilient' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'feel as ticklish but slightly less' is the wordplay.
'ELASTIC' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I'm uncertain how the hidden word is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elastic that I've seen before include "Giving" , "Stretchable material" , "Cats lie (anag.)" , "Like some bands" , "Able to give a bit" .)
