Ill-bred person, very European, going topless (9)
I believe the answer is:
vulgarian
'ill-bred person' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'very european going topless' is the wordplay.
'very' becomes 'v' (abbreviation).
'european' becomes 'Bulgarian' (Bulgaria is in Europe).
'going topless' means to remove the first letter.
'bulgarian' with its first letter taken off is 'ulgarian'.
'v'+'ulgarian'='VULGARIAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for vulgarian that I've seen before include "One with ostentatious bad taste" , "Unrefined individual" , "boorish type" , "unpleasant sort" , "upstart" .)
