Talked excitedly of how some burglars suffered! (7)
I believe the answer is:
burbled
'suffered' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with perception as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for burbled that I've seen is " Gurgled, as a river".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
