Shakes from extremely stylish milk dispensers (8)
I believe the answer is:
shudders
'shakes' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'extremely stylish milk dispensers' is the wordplay.
'extremely' means to remove the middle letters (only the extremes of the word are used).
'milk dispensers' becomes 'udders' (I've seen this in another clue).
'stylish' with its middle taken out is 'sh'.
'sh'+'udders'='SHUDDERS'
'from' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shudders that I've seen before include "Trembles violently as with fear" , "Trembles violently as from horror" , "Shakes or trembles" , "Shivers violently as from fear" .)
