Resentful cause of our going to central France (7)
I believe the answer is:
rancour
'resentful cause' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'our going to central france' is the wordplay.
'going to' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'central' indicates the central letters.
The middle letters of 'france' are 'ranc'.
'our' put after 'ranc' is 'RANCOUR'.
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rancour that I've seen before include "generating ill-feeling ..." , "Bad feeling and resentment" , "Feeling of bitterness or dislike" , "Acrimony" , "Spiteful ill-feeling" .)
