Distinguished, though undecorated? (7)
I believe the answer is:
noticed
This clue could be a double definition.
'distinguished though' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'undecorated?' is the second definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for noticed that I've seen before include "regarded" , "Perceived or observed" , "Detected" , "Spotted" , "Realised" .)
