Corrected English males, old-fashioned (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emendated

'corrected' is the definition.
(to emendate is to correct)

'english males old-fashioned' is the wordplay.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'males' becomes 'men' (man is a kind of male).
'old fashioned' becomes 'dated' (I've seen this before).
'e'+'men'+'dated'='EMENDATED'

I've seen this clue in The Times.
