One who's pragmatic about a record (7)
I believe the answer is:
realist
'one who's pragmatic' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'about a record' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 'rea' (I've seen this in other clues).
'a record' becomes 'list' (list is a type of record).
'rea'+'list'='REALIST'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for realist that I've seen before include "who may look for practical solution" , "Retails for practical man" , "no dreamer" , "One who faces things as they are" , "Pragmatic person" .)
