Forgiving zip on first case? (7,4)
I believe the answer is:
patient zero
'first case?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'forgiving zip on' is the wordplay.
'forgiving' becomes 'patient' (I've seen this before).
'zip' becomes 'zero' (synonyms).
'on' says to put letters next to each other.
'patient'+'zero'='PATIENT ZERO'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
