Greatly admire lounge windows, circular ones, we're told (7)
I believe the answer is:
idolise
'greatly admire' is the definition.
'idolise' can be an answer for 'admire' ('admire'->'idolize' is in my internal thesaurus and 'ize'->'ise'). I am not certain of the 'greatly' bit.
'lounge windows circular ones we're told' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'circular' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is located in the answer.
'ones' could be 'is' (I is the Roman numeral for one) and 'is' is found within the answer.
'lounge' could be 'idle' (I've seen this before) and 'idle' is found within the leftover letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for idolise that I've seen before include "Revere, love greatly" , "Make into a figure of worship" , "Worship to extremes" , "Worship extravagantly" , "Hero-worship, revere" .)
