Crossword Genius

Repeat paid lecture randomly (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reduplicate

'repeat' is the definition.
(reduplicating is a kind of repeating)

'paid lecture randomly' is the wordplay.
'randomly' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'roaming randomly' mean this).
'paid'+'lecture'='paidlecture'
'paidlecture' is an anagram of 'REDUPLICATE'.

(Another definition for reduplicate that I've seen is " Exactly copy".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
