Confusion as I turn right, going left, in limbo dancing (9)
I believe the answer is:
imbroglio
'confusion' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'i turn right going left in limbo dancing' is the wordplay.
'turn' becomes 'go' (a person's move in a board game).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'going left' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (letters written right to left).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'dancing' is an anagram indicator.
'go'+'r'='gor'
'gor' reversed gives 'rog'.
'limbo' is an anagram of 'mblio'.
'rog' inserted into 'mblio' is 'mbroglio'.
'i'+'mbroglio'='IMBROGLIO'
'as' is the link.
(Other definitions for imbroglio that I've seen before include "Confused mess" , "Confused and tangled situation" , "Confusion" , "Jumble" , "quandary" .)
