Disorder offended tramp, it's said (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

syndrome

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

'disorder' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'offended tramp it's said' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'tramp' could be 'me' (where the crossword setter is 'Tramp') and 'me' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for syndrome that I've seen before include "Set of symptoms indicating abnormal conditions" , "Set of symptoms usually occurring together" , "Set of linked symptoms" , "Group of linked symptoms" , "Set of symptoms indicating disease" .)
