John and daughter enter new lift, illuminated brightly (8)
I believe the answer is:
floodlit
'illuminated brightly' is the definition.
'floodlit' can be an answer for 'illuminated' (floodlighting is a kind of illuminating). I am unsure of the 'brightly' bit.
'john and daughter enter new lift' is the wordplay.
'john' becomes 'loo' (loo is a kind of john).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'daughter' becomes 'd'.
'enter' is an insertion indicator.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'loo'+'d'='lood'
'lift' with letters rearranged gives 'flit'.
'lood' put into 'flit' is 'FLOODLIT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for floodlit that I've seen before include "(Of building) illuminated at night" , "powerfully illuminating" , "Artificially illuminated" , "as late matches are played?" , "receiving enlightenment" .)
