The coarse fellow continues to be resented (7)
I believe the answer is:
rankles
'continues to be resented' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'the coarse fellow' is the wordplay.
'the coarse' becomes 'rank' (I've seen this before).
'fellow' becomes 'les' (Les is a man's name).
'rank'+'les'='RANKLES'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rankles that I've seen before include "Riles" , "Goes on vexing" , "Continues to hurt" , "Causes lasting and bitter annoyance" .)
