French individual about to graffiti foremost part of building (8)
I believe the answer is:
frontage
'building' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'french individual about to graffiti foremost part' is the wordplay.
'french' becomes 'fr' (abbreviation).
'individual' becomes 'one' (an individual is one person).
'about to' becomes 'ta' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'foremost' indicates taking the first letters.
'part' indicates putting letters inside (the inserted letters split open or part the word).
The first letter of 'graffiti' is 'g'.
'ta'+'g'='tag'
'one' enclosing 'tag' is 'ontage'.
'fr'+'ontage'='FRONTAGE'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for frontage that I've seen before include "Facade of a building" , "A building's facade" , "Measure of property" .)
