Wanting drive, hate travelling in empty Landcruiser with smoke coming from the back (9)
I believe the answer is:
lethargic
'coming from the back' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'wanting drive hate travelling in empty landcruiser with smoke' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'hate' is 'etha' which is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lethargic that I've seen before include "Short of energy" , "Lackadaisical" , "languid" , "The garlic (anag.)" , "Sluggish and apathetic" .)
