Red mitten upset friend in a hurtful way (13)
I believe the answer is:
detrimentally
'in a hurtful way' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'red mitten upset friend' is the wordplay.
'upset' indicates an anagram.
'friend' becomes 'ally' (an ally is a friend or supporter).
'red'+'mitten'='redmitten'
'redmitten' is an anagram of 'detriment'.
'detriment'+'ally'='DETRIMENTALLY'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for detrimentally that I've seen is " In a damaging manner".)
