Receive pleasure from experience (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

enjoy

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

'experience' is the definition.
(I know that enjoy is a type of experience)

'receive pleasure' is the wordplay.
'receive' becomes 'en' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'pleasure' becomes 'joy' (synonyms).
'en'+'joy'='ENJOY'

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for enjoy that I've seen before include "Delight in (something)" , "Derive pleasure from" , "Have the benefit of" , "Take pleasure in" , "Fancy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
