Is brown tailless Taurus from a Turkish city? (8)
I believe the answer is:
istanbul
'a turkish city?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'is brown tailless taurus' is the wordplay.
'brown' becomes 'tan' (tan is a kind of brown).
'tailless' means to remove the last letter (the tail of the word is removed).
'taurus' becomes 'bull' (I've seen this before).
'bull' with its final letter removed is 'bul'.
'is'+'tan'+'bul'='ISTANBUL'
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for istanbul that I've seen before include "Turkey's largest city" , "Modern name of Constantinople" , "Turkish port city" , "Modern Byzantium" , "Nail bust in the Turkish city" .)
