Speak of how some toreador got tossed! (5)
I believe the answer is:
orate
'speak' is the definition.
(orating is a kind of speaking)
'of how some toreador got tossed' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is located in the answer.
'some' could be 'a' and 'a' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'rte' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for orate that I've seen before include "Harangue" , "Speak publicly" , "Lecture" , "Make a flowery speech" , "Speak in florid style" .)
