Sun Acacia considered to be of European origin (9)
I believe the answer is:
caucasian
'be of european origin' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'sun acacia considered' is the wordplay.
'sun acacia' anagrams to 'CAUCASIAN'.
But, I am unsure how this is indicated.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for caucasian that I've seen is " Eg Armenian".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
