When squashed, a goner? (6)
I believe the answer is:
orange
'when squashed a goner?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'squashed a goner?' is the wordplay.
'squashed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'goner'='agoner'
'agoner' with letters rearranged gives 'ORANGE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for orange that I've seen before include "network" , "Colour between red and yellow" , "Go earn the fruit" , "One's pipped" , "Order of the North" .)
