Accomplished aim, sowed grass round University College court principally (9)
I believe the answer is:
succeeded
'accomplished aim' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with social activities as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'sowed grass round university college court principally' is the wordplay.
'sowed grass' becomes 'seeded' (I've seen this in another clue).
'round' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'principally' indicates taking the first letters.
The initial letters of 'university college court' is 'ucc'.
'seeded' going around 'ucc' is 'SUCCEEDED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for succeeded that I've seen is " Came into a title".)
