detract

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

'take away' is the definition.

(Other definitions for detract that I've seen before include "Take away (from worth)" , "Diminish the worth (of)" , "Slight" , "Take away a part of, lower in value" , "Take away, character perhaps" .)
