Source of broader view succeeds, suppressing mild oath about English and French articles
I believe the answer is:
wide-angle lens
'source' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'broader view succeeds suppressing mild oath about english and french articles' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'view' could be 'angle' (angle is a kind of view) and 'angle' is found within the answer.
'english' could be 'e' (abbreviation) and 'e' is found in the answer.
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
