The French Norseman? (3)
I believe the answer is:
len
'the french norseman?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'the french norseman?' is the wordplay.
'the french' becomes 'le' ('the' in French).
'norseman?' becomes 'n' (this could be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'le'+'n'='LEN''
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for len that I've seen before include "Boy" , "Sir - - Hutton" , "Leonard (dim.)" , "- - Hutton, cricketer" , "-- Deighton, author" .)
