Nice woman presents mother to titled British lady (6)
I believe the answer is:
madame
'nice woman' is the definition.
('woman' in French, eg in Nice)
'mother to titled british lady' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'mother' could be 'dam' (female parent of an animal) and 'dam' is located in the answer.
'lady' could be 'mae' and 'mae' is found within the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'presents' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for madame that I've seen before include "Frenchwoman's title" , "Book by Flaubert" , "A French-speaking woman" , "Flaubert novel" , "Proprietress of a brothel" .)
