Some unfortunate Ethiopian’s dentures, perhaps (5)
I believe the answer is:
teeth
'some unfortunate ethiopian's dentures perhaps' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'some unfortunate ethiopian's dentures' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some parts of the word are used).
'TEETH' can be found hidden inside 'unfortunate ethiopians dentures'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for teeth that I've seen before include "Feature of an effective bill" , "Effective powers" , "Canines, molars, etc" , "Eg, canines, incisors" , "enforcement mechanisms" .)
