Convincing interpretation of Lear (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

real

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'convincing interpretation' is the definition.
'real' can be an answer for 'convincing' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not sure about the 'interpretation' bit.

'of lear' is the wordplay.
'of' is an anagram indicator (the answer comes from or 'of' the letters).
'lear' is an anagram of 'REAL'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for real that I've seen before include "Actual, existing" , "Authentic" , "Working together" , "In America, this estate comprises land and buildings" , "Genuine or existing" .)
