Foreigner given a wave? (7)
I believe the answer is:
mexican
'foreigner' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'a wave?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'given' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mexican that I've seen before include "A central American" , "From Chihuahua, perhaps" , "Latin" , "From Guadalajara or Acapulco?" .)
