Care in taking shifty action out of turn (7)
I believe the answer is:
caution
'care in' is the definition.
'caution' can be an answer for 'care' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'in' bit.
'shifty action out of turn' is the wordplay.
'shifty' indicates an anagram.
'out of' indicates putting letters inside (some letters on the outside of others).
'turn' becomes 'U' (a 'U-turn' is a kind of turn).
'action' with letters rearranged gives 'cation'.
'cation' going around 'u' is 'CAUTION'.
'taking' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for caution that I've seen before include "Prudent wariness" , "Vigilance" , "Care, prudence" , "Give a warning to" , "Care; police warning" .)
