Manage to continue making capital in Burma (7)
I believe the answer is:
rangoon
'in burma' is the definition.
('Rangoon' is part of 'burma')
'manage to continue making capital' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'continue' could be 'goon' (synonyms) and 'goon' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ran' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rangoon that I've seen before include "Asian capital" , "Port and largest city of Burma" , "Former capital of Burma" , "Burma's capital" , "Former name of the capital of Myanmar" .)
