Water body that might be seared? (3,3)
I believe the answer is:
red sea
'water body that' is the definition.
'Red Sea' can be an answer for 'water' (Red Sea is an example). I am not certain of the rest of the definition.
'might be seared?' is the wordplay.
'might be' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'seared' with letters rearranged gives 'RED SEA'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for red sea that I've seen before include "Long narrow stretch of water between Africa and Arabia" , "Arm of the Indian Ocean leading to the Suez Canal" , "Water parted by God to let Moses lead the Israelites out of Egypt" , "What the Suez canal links with the Mediterranean" , "It divided for Moses" .)
