Crossword Genius

Lady from Lisbon hears no evil (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

senhora

'lady from lisbon' is the definition.
(Portuguese for 'lady')

'hears no evil' is the wordplay.
'evil' indicates anagramming the letters.
'hears'+'no'='hearsno'
'hearsno' anagrammed gives 'SENHORA'.

(Other definitions for senhora that I've seen before include "Lady from Lisbon" , "Madam" , "Iberian type" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
