What's grown from fuss surrounding unfinished oral (7)
I believe the answer is:
avocado
'surrounding unfinished oral' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'what's grown from fuss' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'fuss' could be 'ado' ('ado' can be a synonym of 'fuss') and 'ado' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for avocado that I've seen before include "Light green; fruit" , "Fruity colour" , "Tropical fruit with a yellow creamy flesh" , "Alligator pear" , "Evergreen" .)
