In the end, broken tree got inside (7)
I believe the answer is:
entered
'got inside' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'in the end broken tree' is the wordplay.
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'broken' is an anagram indicator.
'tree' with letters rearranged gives 'tere'.
'end' enclosing 'tere' is 'ENTERED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for entered that I've seen before include "Enrolled or went in" , "Logged; arrived" , "moved in" , "Ten deer (anag) - went in" , "Put down" .)
