Right to have hard feelings about water pixie (6)
I believe the answer is:
sprite
'water pixie' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'right to have hard feelings' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'right' could be 'r' (common abbreviation) and 'r' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'spite' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'about' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sprite that I've seen before include "Nimble elf-like creature - icon in computer game" , "Dainty type" , "Naiad" , "Stripe on a fairy" , "Elf, fairy" .)
