I saw a sentence.
“By now Cindy’s abandoned the desk and rushed to the window and gotten it open or open enough, and Edward is clamoring through.”
What does “clamor through” mean here? Is it saying that Edward is climbing through the window? But doesn’t “clamor” mean “shout loudly and insistently”?
The word is not clamor, it's clamber. (climb awkwardly)
