Good sense to accept run in Tesla, say, having some qualms? (7)
I believe the answer is:
nervous
'tesla say having some qualms?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'good sense to accept run' is the wordplay.
'good sense' becomes 'nous ' (nous is a kind of good sense).
'to accept' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'run' becomes 'erv' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'nous' enclosing 'erv' is 'NERVOUS'.
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nervous that I've seen before include "Jittery" , "Feeling or showing anxiety" , "in a stew" , "Frightened" , "Agitated and apprehensive" .)
