I am wrong about part of Middle East being unimportant (10)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
irrelevant
'unimportant' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'i am wrong about part of middle east' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'i' could be 'a' and 'a' is located in the answer.
'about' could be 're' ('re' means regarding or about) and 're' is present in the answer.
'east' could be 'e' (abbreviation) and 'e' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'being' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for irrelevant that I've seen before include "neither here nor there" , "of no concern" , "Beside the point" , "without connection" , "Immaterial" .)
