Worry with traveller’s very small distance to cover? (8)
I believe the answer is:
angstrom
'small distance to cover?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'worry with traveller's' is the wordplay.
'worry' becomes 'angst' (angst means worry or dread).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'traveller' becomes 'rom' (individual belonging to the Romani people).
'angst'+'rom'='ANGSTROM'
'very' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for angstrom that I've seen before include "Tiny unit of length used in Physics" , "A small measure" , "Swedish scientist" , "Microscopic length unit" , "Unit of wavelength measurement" .)
