State phrase when I'm requiring translation (3,9)
I believe the answer is:
new hampshire
'state' is the definition.
(I know that New Hampshire is a American state)
'phrase when i'm requiring translation' is the wordplay.
'requiring translation' indicates an anagram.
'phrase'+'when'+'im'='phrasewhenim'
'phrasewhenim' anagrammed gives 'NEW HAMPSHIRE'.
(Other definitions for new hampshire that I've seen before include "Part of America" , "State of New England" , "A NE US state" , "Northeast US state" .)
