Part of a carol strongly opposed (6)
I believe the answer is:
averse
This might be a double definition.
'part of a carol' is the first definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'strongly opposed' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for averse that I've seen before include "Having a strong opposition (to)" , "Indisposed" , "Strongly opposed (to something)" , "Disinclined, loath" , "Having a strong dislike" .)
