Isn't prepared to invest the lot, anyhow, in an English export (7)
I believe the answer is:
stilton
'an english export' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.
'isn't prepared to invest the lot anyhow' is the wordplay.
'prepared' indicates an anagram.
'to invest' is an insertion indicator (back).
'anyhow' indicates anagramming the letters.
'isnt' anagrammed gives 'stin'.
'lot' with letters rearranged gives 'lto'.
'stin' going around 'lto' is 'STILTON'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stilton that I've seen before include "Blue 8 across" , "Dairy product" , "Blue 4 across" , "English cheese, usually veined" , "Rich, blue-veined cheese" .)
