Unhappy Hungarian leaders becoming ascetic (5)
I believe the answer is:
sadhu
This clue could be a double definition.
'unhappy hungarian leaders' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.
'ascetic' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
'becoming' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sadhu that I've seen before include "Indian wandering holy man" , "Ascetic" , "Indian holy man or sage" , "Hindu wandering holy man" , "one choosing austerity" .)
