Receive from learning (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

earn

'receive' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'from learning' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'EARN' is hidden in the letters of 'learning'.

(Other definitions for earn that I've seen before include "Receive in return for" , "Gain by work or merit" , "Win" , "Gain (money, reputation, etc)" , "Secure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
