Tool producing French and English articles (5)
I believe the answer is:
lathe
'tool' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'french and english articles' is the wordplay.
'french and english' becomes 'l' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'articles' becomes 'athe' (two examples of the part-of-speech: a+the).
'l'+'athe'='LATHE'
'producing' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lathe that I've seen before include "Wood-turning machine" , "This is turned out" , "Turning instrument" , "Turning implement" , "Machine for turning and shaping wood etc" .)
