Realise student dropped out to get less stressed (6)
I believe the answer is:
easier
'get less stressed' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'realise student dropped out' is the wordplay.
'student' becomes 'L' (as in L-plates for learner drivers).
'dropped' suggests deleting specific letters (some letters are excluded or dropped).
'out' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'realise' with 'l' removed is 'reaise'.
'reaise' anagrammed gives 'EASIER'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for easier that I've seen before include "More effortless" , "Less taxing" , "more like a piece of cake" , "More simple" , "Not so hard" .)
