Time with eg Rishi, wild and ferocious (8)
I believe the answer is:
tigerish
'ferocious' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'time with eg rishi wild' is the wordplay.
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'wild' indicates anagramming the letters.
'eg'+'rishi'='egrishi'
'egrishi' anagrammed gives 'igerish'.
't'+'igerish'='TIGERISH'
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tigerish that I've seen before include "Fierce" , "feistiness" .)
