Timely drink after work with a Parisian (9)
I believe the answer is:
opportune
'timely' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'drink after work with a parisian' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'drink' could be 'port' (port is a kind of drink) and 'port' is located in the answer.
'work' could be 'op' (abbreviation for opus) and 'op' is found in the answer.
'a parisian' could be 'une' ('a' in French) and 'une' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for opportune that I've seen before include "in place" , "Timely, advantageous moment" , "Of time, suitable or favourable" , "Appropriate" , "Well-timed" .)
