I believe the answer is:

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">verruca</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that verruca can be written as wart)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for wart that I've seen before include "Horny skin growth" , "Verruca" , "Small rounded protuberance on the skin" , "Abnormal blemish on the skin, caused by a virus" , "Charmable excrescence" .)
