Tremble as the woman almost stripped naked (5)
I believe the answer is:
shake
'tremble' is the definition.
(I know that tremble is a more specific form of shake)
'the woman almost stripped naked' is the wordplay.
'the woman almost' becomes 'sh' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'stripped' says to take the centre (outside letters removed).
The middle of 'naked' is 'ake'.
'sh'+'ake'='SHAKE'
'as' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shake that I've seen before include "Quiver" , "damaging blow" , "Tremble, quake" , "Rattle" , "Flavoured milk drink" .)
