Rising temperature followed rising flame (6)
I believe the answer is:
revolt
'rising temperature followed rising flame' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'rising temperature followed rising flame' is the wordplay.
'rising temperature' becomes 't' (abbreviation. I am not sure about the 'rising' bit.).
'followed' says to put letters next to each other.
'rising' says the letters should be written in reverse (going up in a down clue).
'flame' becomes 'lover' (I've seen this in another clue).
'lover' written backwards gives 'revol'.
't' after 'revol' is 'REVOLT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for revolt that I've seen before include "Uprising, insurrection" , "Actively seek independence" , "Rebel; rebellion" , "Rebel or disgust" , "Upset" .)
