Red vs White, you hold:
♠Qxx
♥AQTxx
♦73
♣Jxx
3NT* Pa 4♣ Pa
4♦ Pa Pa 4♠
Pa Pa 5♣ Pa
5♦ ???
What does partner action over 4♦ (after having passed 4♣) mean? What would you bid now?

Pass + 4♠ sounds like weaker than an immediate 4♠.
So now I pass.

Maybe this should show spades and clubs, as opposed to a direct 4♠ bid which would show spades only?

After a gambling 3NT you can't show 2 suits. Partner only showed ♠ and a weaker hand than an immediate 4♠ call. Since I'm pretty sure 4♠ would've been defeated, I sure as hell wouldn't bid 5♠.
There's not much gain in doubling either, so I guess pass stands out.
