Plough through a translation from Latin (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
great bear
'plough' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for great bear that I've seen before include "visible in the night sky" , "Large animal - same as 7" , "star group" , "'Large ursine in the heavens (5,4)'" , "Plough constellation" .)
