The Spanish one crippled in Egyptian village (2,7)
I believe the answer is:
el alamein
'village' is the definition.
(I know that El Alamein is a village)
'the spanish one crippled in' is the wordplay.
'the spanish' becomes 'el' ('the' in Spanish).
'one' becomes 'a' (a thing is one thing).
'crippled' becomes 'lame' (synonyms).
'el'+'a'+'lame'+'in'='EL ALAMEIN'
'egyptian' acts as a link.
This may not be right. It may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for el alamein that I've seen before include "victory" , "Place in Egypt where Montgomery defeated Rommel" , "North African World War two battle" , "North African WW2 battle site" , "WWII battle" .)
