I believe the answer is:

shout

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cry' is the definition.
(I know that cry can be written as shout)

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Other definitions for shout that I've seen before include "Bawl" , "Utter a loud cry" , "Raise one's voice" , "Call loudly" , "bellow" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
