Language detailing a direction-less quantity (5)
I believe the answer is:
scala
'language detailing a' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'direction-less quantity' is the wordplay.
'direction' becomes 's' (S is an example).
'less' becomes 'cal' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'quantity' becomes 'a' (A is an example).
's'+'cal'+'a'='SCALA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for scala that I've seen before include "La --, Milan theatre" , "La . . . . . is a famous Opera House in Milan" .)
