Did revolt spread beyond port? (6)
I believe the answer is:
rioted
'did revolt' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with social activities as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'spread beyond port?' is the wordplay.
'spread' becomes 'ted' (I've seen this in another clue).
'beyond' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'port?' becomes 'rio' (Rio de Janeiro is a port).
'ted' after 'rio' is 'RIOTED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rioted that I've seen before include "Of crowd, ran amok" , "Revolted" , "went on rampage" , "Ran amok like editor" , "Ran wild" .)
