Confused kid has initially imprinted African shirt (7)
I believe the answer is:
dashiki
'african shirt' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'confused kid has initially imprinted' is the wordplay.
'confused' indicates anagramming the letters.
'initially' indicates taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'imprinted' is 'i'.
'kid'+'has'='kidhas'
'kidhas' is an anagram of 'dashik'.
'dashik'+'i'='DASHIKI'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for dashiki that I've seen is " Colourful African shirt".)
