Deduce that the fine will turn out right (5)
I believe the answer is:
infer
'deduce' is the definition.
(I know that deduce can be written as infer)
'the fine will turn out right' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'fine' is 'infe' which is present in the answer.
'right' could be 'r' (common abbreviation) and 'r' is found in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'that' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for infer that I've seen before include "Draw meaning from" , "Conjecture" , "Deduce logically" , "Conclude by reasoning" , "Read between the line" .)
