[hankir]

I have 2 left and one whose answer I cannot parse.

But please provide me with a hint on this clue first.

8. Po rt so? (5)
S?L??
Please note there is a space after Po.

Thanks in advance.

What has happened to the first word, the answer is the name of a first word.

The answer is the name of a port (as in harbour - not the drink.)

This name also "describes" what has been done to the word "port" as printed.

Thank you both.
My knowledge of that part of the world is lacking.
