Cleric getting fair review right (5)
I believe the answer is:
friar
'cleric' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'fair review right' is the wordplay.
'review' indicates an anagram.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'fair' with letters rearranged gives 'fria'.
'fria'+'r'='FRIAR'
'getting' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for friar that I've seen before include "Member of one of the four mendicant orders" , "Male member of a mendicant religious order" , "Eg, a Dominican" , "Monk perhaps" , "Mendicant preacher" .)
