Practical instruction limerick writer ignored? (2-8)
I believe the answer is:
no-nonsense
'ignored?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for no-nonsense that I've seen before include "Straightforward, practical" , "Sensible and straightforward" , "Simple, sensible" , "Simple, straightforward" , "Down-to-earth" .)
