Endlessly peruse scrawl? Outstanding (5)
I believe the answer is:
super
'outstanding' is the definition.
(super can mean very good)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for super that I've seen before include "Top" , "Delightful" , "Outstanding" , "Informally terrific, splendid" , "Smashing, terrific" .)
