Get cold feet about run in worst part of winter? (5)
I believe the answer is:
dread
'get cold feet' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'run in worst part of winter?' is the wordplay.
'run' becomes 'r' (cricket abbreviation).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'worst part of winter?' becomes 'dead' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'r' put inside 'dead' is 'DREAD'.
'about' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dread that I've seen before include "Terrible fear" , "Enormous apprehension" , "Frightful" , "Intense fear" , "Adder (anag)" .)
