Still waiting for a formal proposal? (10)
I believe the answer is:
motionless
'still' is the definition.
(I know that still can be written as motionless)
'waiting for a formal proposal?' is the wordplay.
'waiting' becomes 'less' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'for' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'a formal proposal?' becomes 'motion' (I've seen this in another clue).
'less' after 'motion' is 'MOTIONLESS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for motionless that I've seen before include "Perfectly still" , "Still, unmoving" , "Static" , "Immobile" , "not having anything to vote about?" .)
