Animal biting worker sent back and tagged again (7)
I believe the answer is:
renamed
'tagged again' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'animal biting worker sent back' is the wordplay.
'animal' becomes 'deer' (deer is a type of animal).
'biting' is an insertion indicator (some letters bite or swallow others).
'worker' becomes 'man' (man is a kind of worker).
'sent back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'deer' going around 'man' is 'demaner'.
'demaner' reversed gives 'RENAMED'.
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for renamed that I've seen is " Meander (anag)".)
