German terribly fit for the present (4)
I believe the answer is:
gift
'the present' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'german terribly fit' is the wordplay.
'german' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'terribly' indicates an anagram.
'fit' is an anagram of 'ift'.
'g'+'ift'='GIFT'
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for gift that I've seen before include "Offering" , "Present or special talent" , "Endowment" , "A natural attribute" , "[BOUNTY] ?" .)
