Flash damaged a port initially set for obsolete browser? (11)
I believe the answer is:
triceratops
'obsolete browser?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'flash damaged a port initially set' is the wordplay.
'flash' becomes 'trice' (quick moment).
'damaged' indicates anagramming the letters.
'initially' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'set' is 's'.
'a'+'port'='aport'
'aport' is an anagram of 'ratop'.
'trice'+'ratop'+'s'='TRICERATOPS'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for triceratops that I've seen before include "Three-horned dinosaur" , "Extinct reptile" , "Cretaceous herbivore" , "Horned dinosaur" , "Old creature" .)
