State two answers when tackling Latin question (6)
I believe the answer is:
alaska
'state two' is the definition.
'Alaska' can be an answer for 'state' (Alaska is a US state). I am not sure about the 'two' bit.
'answers when tackling latin question' is the wordplay.
'answers when' becomes 'aa' (an abbreviation for answer written twice. I am not sure about the 'when' bit.).
'tackling' is an insertion indicator (to tackle is to take possession of).
'latin' becomes 'l'.
'question' becomes 'ask' (asking a question).
'l'+'ask'='lask'
'aa' placed around 'lask' is 'ALASKA'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for alaska that I've seen before include "State of north-west US" , "Largest state of the USA" , "Anchorage is the capital" , "Palin was the recent governor here" , "Northmost US state" .)
