Ignored roundabout, motorway and two intersections to outskirts of Elwood (7)
I believe the answer is:
omitted
'ignored' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'roundabout motorway and two intersections to outskirts of elwood' is the wordplay.
'roundabout' becomes 'O' (resembles a roundabout).
'motorway' becomes 'MI' (resembles Mt, English motorway).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'two intersections' becomes 'tt' (two T's - as in a T junction. I am not sure about the 'two' bit.).
'to outskirts of' suggests removing the centre (only letters on the outskirts).
'elwood' with its centre removed is 'ed'.
'o'+'mi'+'tt'+'ed'='OMITTED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for omitted that I've seen before include "Excluded" , "Dropped" , "Overlooked" , "Left out - neglected" , "Disregarded" .)
