About this clue type

From the preamble to Azed No. 2584

Apart from 20, every entry is formed by cutting a word or words at any point and then reattaching the two parts, the second followed by the first, e.g. WORD could give ORDW, RDWO or DWOR. Clues consist of a definition of the unmutilated answer and a subsidiary indication of the grid entry. 20 (a verb form, to be deduced) appears as normal. Competitors should submit with their entries a clue to this word, cut wherever they choose, following the style of all the other clues. Please indicate clearly where your clue cuts the unmutilated word.
