Introduce her into American home (5,2)
I believe the answer is:
usher in
'introduce' is the definition.
(I know that introduce can be written as usher in)
'her into american home' is the wordplay.
'into' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'american' becomes 'US' (abbreviation for United States).
'home' becomes 'in' (to be in is to be (at) home).
'us'+'in'='usin'
'her' placed within 'usin' is 'USHER IN'.
(Another definition for usher in that I've seen is " Introduce".)
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
