Crossword Genius

Resounded in the strangest way (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rang

'resounded' is the definition.
('ring' can be a synonym of 'resound')

'in the strangest way' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'RANG' is hidden in the letters of 'strangest way'.

(Other definitions for rang that I've seen before include "Chimed" , "Called" , "(Of bell) sounded" , "Made a phone call" , "Phoned; reverberated" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
