Get wisdom about current in French river (5)
I believe the answer is:
loire
'french river' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'get wisdom about current' is the wordplay.
'get wisdom' becomes 'lore' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'current' becomes 'i' (symbol for electric current).
'lore' going around 'i' is 'LOIRE'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for loire that I've seen before include "flower found amid vineyards" , "banker" , "part of France" , "French department" , "valley famous for its wines" .)
