Latin masters'd let fly -- if Cicero's passage were this? (13)
I believe the answer is:
mistranslated
'cicero's passage were this?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun but the answer is not.
'latin masters'd let fly' is the wordplay.
'latin masters'd' can be anagrammed to 'MISTRANSLATED'.
However, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.
'if' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
