Lack of difficulties about French at a basic level (2-6)
I believe the answer is:
no-frills
'a basic level' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'lack of difficulties about french' is the wordplay.
'lack of' becomes 'no' (eg no bread means a lack of bread).
'difficulties' becomes 'ills' (I've seen this in another clue).
'about' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'french' becomes 'fr' (abbreviation).
'ills' put after 'fr' is 'frills'.
'no'+'frills'='NO-FRILLS'
'at' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for no-frills that I've seen before include "Devoid of inessential features" , "Without any extras - fins roll (anag)" , "Plain" , "simple ..." , "Essential" .)
