Talented; gave (6)
I believe the answer is:
gifted
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'talented' is the first definition.
(I know that talented can be written as gifted)
'gave' is the second definition.
('gift' can be a synonym of 'give')
(Other definitions for gifted that I've seen before include "Exceptionally clever" , "Talented, naturally accomplished" , "Accomplished, having talent" , "Talented, having great natural ability" , "Greatly talented" .)
