Deliver freer translation (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

refer

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

'deliver' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I can't see how they can define each other.

'freer translation' is the wordplay.
'translation' indicates an anagram.
'freer' is an anagram of 'REFER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for refer that I've seen before include "guide" , "Advert, mention" , "Make allusion, direct attention with words" , "Mention/allude (to)" , "Pass" .)
