Found to be less habit forming? (9)
I believe the answer is:
establish
'found' is the definition.
(found can mean to set up or establish)
'less habit forming?' is the wordplay.
'forming?' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'form' mean this).
'less'+'habit'='lesshabit'
'lesshabit' anagrammed gives 'ESTABLISH'.
'to be' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for establish that I've seen before include "Set up a business or prove to be true" , "form" , "Set up on permanent basis, or show to be true" , "Found - institute" , "Found - this sable (anag)" .)
