tyrolean

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

'st anton native perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'to limit year on slope' is the wordplay.
'to limit' means one lot of letters goes inside another (outside letters limit or restrain others).
'year' becomes 'yr' (abbreviation).
'on' becomes 'to'.
'slope' becomes 'lean' (I've seen this in another clue).
'yr' going into 'to' is 'tyro'.
'tyro'+'lean'='TYROLEAN'

'has' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tyrolean that I've seen before include "European" , "Of an Alpine district" , "native of Innsbruck?" , "Residing in Innsbruck" , "Native of picturesque mountainous region of western Austria" .)
