Alpine resort around most of the high mountain? In Scotland it is for the common man! (8)
I believe the answer is:
plebeian
'for the common man' is the definition.
(plebeian is a kind of common man)
'alpine resort around most of the high mountain? in scotland it' is the wordplay.
'resort' indicates anagramming the letters.
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'most of the high mountain? in scotland' becomes 'b' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'it' becomes 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT').
'alpine' with letters rearranged gives 'pleian'.
'b'+'e'='be'
'pleian' enclosing 'be' is 'PLEBEIAN'.
'is' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for plebeian that I've seen before include "Of the common people" , "Vulgar" , "Non-U?" , "Lacking in refinement" , "Common person" .)
