Repeated about the flow (9)
I believe the answer is:
recurrent
'repeated' is the definition.
(I know that repeated can be written as recurrent)
'about the flow' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'about' could be 're' ('re' means regarding or about) and 're' is present in the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for recurrent that I've seen before include "Happening repeatedly" , "taking place periodically" , "Periodical" , "Happening often" , "Occurring repeatedly" .)
