Old lingo from girl mad women led astray (6,3,6)
I believe the answer is:
middle low german
'old lingo' is the definition.
(historical language)
'girl mad women led astray' is the wordplay.
'astray' is an anagram indicator.
'girl'+'mad'+'women'+'led'='girlmadwomenled'
'girlmadwomenled' is an anagram of 'MIDDLE LOW GERMAN'.
'from' is the link.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
