Praised twin somersaulting over short boy (6)
I believe the answer is:
lauded
'praised' is the definition.
(lauding is a kind of praising)
'twin somersaulting over short boy' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'boy' could be 'ed' and 'ed' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'laud' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lauded that I've seen before include "Praised and extolled" , "Praised, glorified" , "Praised highly" .)
