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' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'set' is 's'.
'a'+'port'='aport'
'aport' with letters rearranged gives 'ratop'.
'trice'+'ratop'+'s'='TRICERATOPS'
'for' is the 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" .)
