Words Angela misused about good university (8)
I believe the answer is:
language
'words' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'angela misused about good university' is the wordplay.
'misused' indicates an anagram.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'angela' anagrammed gives 'lanage'.
'g'+'u'='gu'
'lanage' placed around 'gu' is 'LANGUAGE'.
(Other definitions for language that I've seen before include "Eg, English" , "System of words used by a group" , "speech?" , "See 23" , "Irish, English, French, for instance" .)
