Given an estimate for a new sari, going into shock! (9)
I believe the answer is:
appraisal
'given an estimate' is the definition.
'appraisal' can be an answer for 'estimate' (synonyms). I am not sure about the 'given an' bit.
'a new sari going into shock' is the wordplay.
'a new' is an anagram indicator.
'going into' indicates putting letters inside.
'shock' becomes 'appal' (synonyms).
'sari' is an anagram of 'rais'.
'rais' placed inside 'appal' is 'APPRAISAL'.
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for appraisal that I've seen before include "judgement" , "valuation" , "Formal assessment of an employee's performance" , "rating" , "Evaluation - price survey" .)
