Kept going wildly in love with diamonds (5,2)
I believe the answer is:
lived on
'kept going' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are past participle verbs, I can't see how one could define the other.
'wildly in love with diamonds' is the wordplay.
'wildly' is an anagram indicator.
'with' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'diamonds' becomes 'd' (abbreviation for the card suit diamonds).
'in'+'love'='inlove'
'inlove' is an anagram of 'liveon'.
'liveon' placed around 'd' is 'LIVED ON'.
Can you help me to learn more?
