Latin ruler capturing island brings pleasure (6)
I believe the answer is:
liking
'pleasure' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'latin ruler capturing island' is the wordplay.
'latin' becomes 'l'.
'ruler' becomes 'king' (king is a kind of ruler**).
'capturing' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'island' becomes 'i'.
'l'+'king'='lking'
'lking' going around 'i' is 'LIKING'.
'brings' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for liking that I've seen before include "Partiality" , "A feeling of regard or fondness" , "weakness" , "Taste - preference - affection" , "Happy about" .)
