Get ill from sea lily - that couldn't be difficult? (4)
I believe the answer is:
easy
'difficult?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'get ill from sea lily that couldn't' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'sea' is 'eas' which is present in the answer.
A single letter 'y' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
'be' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for easy that I've seen before include "Comfortable" , "Presenting no problems" , "Simply achieved" , "for a piece of cake" , "careful!" .)
