Show embarrassment at socialist study (6)
I believe the answer is:
redden
'show embarrassment at socialist study' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'at socialist study' is the wordplay.
'at' says to put letters next to each other.
'socialist' becomes 'red' (red is a kind of socialist).
'study' becomes 'den' (I've seen this before**).
'red' put next to 'den' is 'REDDEN'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for redden that I've seen before include "Blush, colour accordingly" , "Evaluate the nature of (something)" , "Group of states under one head" , "Blush or become flushed" , "Blush like the dawn sky" .)
