Is able to join a woman abroad (6)
I believe the answer is:
canada
'is able to join a woman abroad' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'is able to join a woman' is the wordplay.
'is able to' becomes 'can' (if you can do something you are able to do it).
'join' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a woman' becomes 'ada' (woman's name).
'can'+'ada'='CANADA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for canada that I've seen before include "Commonwealth country" , "World's second-largest country by area" , "Queen Elizabeth is it's head of state" , "Country with six time zones" , "Land of the Great Lakes" .)
