Male individual that originally created an impression? (5)
I believe the answer is:
monet
'an impression?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'male individual that originally' is the wordplay.
'male' becomes 'm' (common abbreviation).
'individual' becomes 'one' (an individual is one person).
'originally' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'that' is 't'.
'm'+'one'+'t'='MONET'
'created' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for monet that I've seen before include "French landscape painter" , "he painted Rouen Cathedral" , "French Impressionist with famous garden" , "Claude --, French impressionist painter" , "Claude, impressionist painter, d. 1926" .)
