Outcast plays a part (4)
I believe the answer is:
acts
This clue could be a double definition.
'outcast' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.
'plays a part' is the second definition.
(to act is to play a part)
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for acts that I've seen before include "Behaves or plays" , "the entertainment for a revue?" , "Cast in major divisions of plays, like Shakespeare's" , "Religious book" , "Turns" .)
