Homeless alternative comedian leaving Spain (7)
I believe the answer is:
nomadic
'homeless' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'alternative comedian leaving spain' is the wordplay.
'alternative' indicates anagramming the letters (an alternative ordering of the letters).
'leaving' is a deletion indicator.
'spain' becomes 'e' (abbreviation for Espana).
'comedian' with 'e' taken away is 'comdian'.
'comdian' with letters rearranged gives 'NOMADIC'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nomadic that I've seen before include "Not settling" , "Of no fixed abode" , "Itinerant" , "Migratory" , "Moving around" .)
