Seated, is given food around one, making one this? (9)
I believe the answer is:
satisfied
'one this?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun but the answer is not.
'seated is given food around one' is the wordplay.
'seated' becomes 'sat' ('sit' can be a synonym of 'seat').
'given food' becomes 'fed' (I've seen this in other clues).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'fed' placed around 'i' is 'fied'.
'sat'+'is'+'fied'='SATISFIED'
'making' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for satisfied that I've seen before include "given answer > was convincing" , "Pleased, contented" , "relieved of doubt" , "Complied with (a condition)" , "Content" .)
