Freedom from partner of la bride? (7)
I believe the answer is:
abandon
'freedom from partner of la bride?' is the definition.
'abandon' can be an answer for 'freedom' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not certain of the 'from partner of la bride?' bit.
'freedom from partner of' is the wordplay.
'freedom' becomes 'aband' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'from' is an anagram indicator (the anagram comes from the same letters).
'partner' becomes 'n'.
'of' becomes 'o''.
'n'+'o'='no'
'no' with letters rearranged gives 'on'.
'aband'+'on'='ABANDON'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for abandon that I've seen before include "Cast aside" , "Junk" , "Desert, strand" , "Walk out on" , "Desert; intemperance" .)
