Revolting person? (5)
I believe the answer is:
rebel
'revolting person?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'person?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'person?' could be 'reb' (Reb is an example) and 'reb' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'el' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rebel that I've seen before include "Non-conformist" , "Rise up against authority" , "Rise up - dissent" , "He resists authority" , "Disobey" .)
