He’s from New Zealand, nominally (4)
I believe the answer is:
alan
'he's from new zealand nominally' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'he's from new zealand' is the wordplay.
'he' becomes 'al'.
'from' says to put letters next to each other.
'new zealand' becomes 'an' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'al'+'an'='ALAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for alan that I've seen before include "- Ayckbourn, English playwright" , "One of Robin Hood's men was - a Dale" , "-- Bennett, playwright" , "Lana (anag.), man's name" , "- Bennett, English dramatist, author" .)
