For being a bit fierce, shame on you! (3)
I believe the answer is:
fie
'shame on you' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fie that I've seen before include "Yuck!" , "Interjection of disgust" , "Exclamation of mock dismay" , "Cry of dismay" , "Shame!" .)
