Veil made differently in the Middle Ages (8)
I believe the answer is:
medieval
'middle ages' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'veil made differently' is the wordplay.
'differently' indicates anagramming the letters.
'veil'+'made'='veilmade'
'veilmade' anagrammed gives 'MEDIEVAL'.
'in the' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for medieval that I've seen before include "Of an earlier period" , "Of the middle ages, or really old-fashioned" , "Am veiled in style of the middle ages" , "Belonging to the Middle Ages" , "Relating to the Middle Ages" .)
