Talk about the French in Swiss Cottage? (6)
I believe the answer is:
chalet
'swiss cottage?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'talk about the french' is the wordplay.
'talk' becomes 'chat' (I've seen this before).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'the french' becomes 'le' ('the' in French).
'chat' going around 'le' is 'CHALET'.
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for chalet that I've seen before include "Alpine lodge" , "small house" , "Swiss hut for mountaineers" , "holiday property?" , "Swiss cottage or small villa" .)
