Talent perhaps not easy to spot (6)
I believe the answer is:
latent
'easy to spot' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'talent perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates anagramming the letters.
'talent' anagrammed gives 'LATENT'.
'not' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for latent that I've seen before include "Not (yet) apparent" , "Potential not realised" , "Existing but not yet developed, say ability" , "There but not yet effective" , "Hidden (talent)" .)
