Some tuna I’ve tenderised in state of ignorance (7)
I believe the answer is:
naivete
'state of ignorance' is the definition.
'naivete' can be an answer for 'ignorance' (thesaurus). I'm not certain of the 'state of' bit.
'some tuna i've tenderised' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some parts of the word are used).
'NAIVETE' is hidden in the letters of 'tuna ive tenderised'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for naivete that I've seen before include "Ingenuosity" , "State of inexperience (French spelling)" , "lack of experience" , "Innocence, artlessness" , "Lack of worldliness" .)
