Convince strangers to welcome brotherly love? (6)
I believe the answer is:
incest
'brotherly love?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'convince strangers to welcome' is the wordplay.
'to welcome' says the answer is hidden in the clue (I've seen 'welcoming' mean this).
'INCEST' can be found hidden inside 'convince strangers'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for incest that I've seen before include "Forbidden sexual relations within family group" , "Crime within the family" .)
