Defect, with both pronunciations! It's a double definition - one means a fault, the other means to desert, leave to go to another country (like spies, athletes etc).

9 Another double definition. Sandwich, in Kent, is an Ex Port and spread and export can mean the same, to scatter abroad.

Malone - cheers for the answer to 9 down. That one was a double expletive when I saw it!
