Injury by lift hacked one off (5,2)
I believe the answer is:
wound up
'off' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'injury by lift hacked one' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'injury' could be 'wound' (wound is a kind of injury) and 'wound' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'up' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for wound up that I've seen before include "Teased" , "Angry" , "being put into liquidation" , "highly irritated" , "excited" .)
