Some French anger and longing (6)
I believe the answer is:
desire
'longing' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'some french anger' is the wordplay.
'some french' becomes 'des'.
'anger' becomes 'ire' ('ire' can be a synonym of 'anger').
'des'+'ire'='DESIRE'
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for desire that I've seen before include "Reside in longing" , "Famous play: ''A Streetcar Named ......''" , "request" , "Covet" , "Want to reside?" .)
