Say, Vlad the Impaler, Emperor Caesar and writer Fleming (8)
I believe the answer is:
romanian
'say vlad the impaler emperor' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'caesar and writer fleming' is the wordplay.
'caesar' becomes 'roman' (I've seen this in another clue).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'writer fleming' becomes 'ian' (I've seen this in another clue).
'roman'+'ian'='ROMANIAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for romanian that I've seen before include "European" , "One from Bucharest" , "Native to Bucharest, say" , "Nationality of citizen of Bucharest" .)
