Crossword Genius

Part of statement a pedant recorded (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taped

'recorded' is the definition.
(taping is a kind of recording)

'part of statement a pedant' is the wordplay.
'part of' indicates a hidden word.
'TAPED' can be found hidden inside 'statement a pedant'.

(Other definitions for taped that I've seen before include "recorded" , "On record; tied up" , "put on record" , "Bound" .)
