Inclined to hide granita (licked) (6)
I believe the answer is:
italic
'inclined' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are adjectives, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'hide granita licked' is the wordplay.
'hide' indicates a hidden word.
'ITALIC' can be found hidden inside 'granita licked'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for italic that I've seen before include "typifies a list in character" , "Sloping type of print" , "Inclined to emphasise" , "more oblique than Roman" , "Like a sloping typeface" .)
