Relocate to make art in Ferns (8)
I believe the answer is:
transfer
'relocate' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'art in ferns' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'art' is 'tra' which is located in the answer.
an anagram of 'ferns' is 'nsfer' which is within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to make' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for transfer that I've seen before include "Move, change (to new place)" , "Hand, move, change, over" , "Move football clubs" , "Move from one team to another" , "Change to another group or surface" .)
