'received' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'at home that woman's diet badly' is the wordplay.
'at home' becomes 'in' ('I'm in' can mean 'I'm at home').
'that woman' becomes 'her' ('her' refers to a woman).
'badly' is an anagram indicator.
'diet' is an anagram of 'ited'.
'in'+'her'+'ited'='INHERITED'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for inherited that I've seen before include "Received from an ancestor" , "Came into" , "handed down" , "Received from forebears" , "Was left" .)
