She has permission (3)
I believe the answer is:
may
This clue is a double definition.
'she' is the first definition.
(I know that May is a female given name)
'has permission' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for may that I've seen before include "Hawthorm blossom" , "Might" , "Hawthorn blossom" , "Could" , "Time" .)
