Name of Parisian in hat drinking tea, we hear (7)
I believe the answer is:
entitle
'tea we hear' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'name of parisian in hat drinking' is the wordplay.
'name of' becomes 't' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'parisian in' becomes 'en' ('in' in French).
'hat' becomes 'tile' (old-fashioned term for a hat).
'drinking' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters are consumed or drunk).
'en'+'tile'='entile'
't' inserted inside 'entile' is 'ENTITLE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for entitle that I've seen before include "Call; permit" , "Give one the right - name" , "Give a right or authority to" , "Warrant" , "Give (someone) rights" .)
