University disco due to move to shed? (9)
I believe the answer is:
deciduous
'shed?' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'university disco due to move' is the wordplay.
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'to move' is an anagram indicator.
'u'+'disco'+'due'='udiscodue'
'udiscodue' is an anagram of 'DECIDUOUS'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for deciduous that I've seen before include "like certain trees" , "(Of tree or shrub) dropping its leaves annually" , "Not evergreen" , "Losing leaves annually" , "Like plane" .)
