Mountain family receiving letter from Nato clash over nothing (11)
I believe the answer is:
kilimanjaro
'mountain' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'family receiving letter from nato clash over nothing' is the wordplay.
'family' becomes 'kin' (synonyms).
'receiving' indicates putting letters inside.
'letter from nato' becomes 'lima' (NATO phonetic alphabet).
'clash' becomes 'jar' (synonyms).
'over nothing' becomes 'o' (O resembles 0. I am not sure about the 'over' bit.).
'kin' enclosing 'lima' is 'kiliman'.
'kiliman'+'jar'+'o'='KILIMANJARO'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for kilimanjaro that I've seen before include "Africa's highest peak" , "Extinct volcano in Tanzania" , "Highest peak of Africa" , "African mountain with snows" , "Highest mountain in Africa" .)
