To Einstein, one of the family (8)
I believe the answer is:
relative
'one of the family' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for relative that I've seen before include "one in a family" , "inappropriate lover?" , "Person connected by blood or marriage" , "uncle, perhaps" , "Relevant - member of one's family" .)
