Vivid description of a somewhat graceful, entertaining Greek character (7)
I believe the answer is:
graphic
'vivid' is the definition.
(I know that vivid can be written as graphic)
'description of a somewhat graceful entertaining greek character' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'a' is found in the answer.
'greek' could be 'gr' (abbreviation for Greek) and 'gr' is found within the answer.
'character' could be 'phi' (phi is a kind of letter of the alphabet) and 'phi' is found in the answer.
A single letter 'c' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for graphic that I've seen before include "Evoking vivid images" , "Of drawing or lettering - vivid" , "Relating to visual art; explicit" , "Giving vivid detail" , "Vivid - computer-generated image" .)
