English align converts with John (8)
I believe the answer is:
anglican
'english' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
'align converts with john' is the wordplay.
'converts' indicates anagramming the letters.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'john' becomes 'can' (both can informally mean toilet).
'align' is an anagram of 'angli'.
'angli'+'can'='ANGLICAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for anglican that I've seen before include "Religious person" , "Relating to the Church of England" , "Christian in communion with the see of Canterbury" , "Within the Church of England's communion" , "Member of the Church of England" .)
