Entered the office uninvited (7)
I believe the answer is:
usurped
This might be a double definition.
'entered the office' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are past participle verbs, I don't see how they can define each other.
'uninvited' is the second definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for usurped that I've seen before include "Taken by force" , "Took power illegally" , "Took power or position wrongfully" , "Seized and took control" , "Took control (by force)" .)
