With no crops cut, aunt lived unhappily (12)
I believe the answer is:
uncultivated
'with no crops cut aunt lived unhappily' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'cut aunt lived unhappily' is the wordplay.
'unhappily' indicates anagramming the letters.
'cut'+'aunt'+'lived'='cutauntlived'
'cutauntlived' is an anagram of 'UNCULTIVATED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for uncultivated that I've seen is " Not highly educated".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
