State that is American at heart? (5,6)
I believe the answer is:
rhode island
This might be a double definition.
'state' is the first definition.
(I know that Rhode Island is a state)
'american at heart?' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
I also know that 'american' relates to this answer.
'that is' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rhode island that I've seen before include "Smallest state of the USA" , "One of the original 13 US states" , "Part of America" , "US East coast state" , "Smallest US state" .)
