Way role changed for pronoun (5,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

royal we

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

'pronoun' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'way role changed' is the wordplay.
'changed' is an anagram indicator.
'way'+'role'='wayrole'
'wayrole' anagrammed gives 'ROYAL WE'.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for royal we that I've seen before include "Monarch's use of the first person plural" , "Queen's pronoun" , "for King George I?" , "Monarch's way of referring to themselves" , "Coming from eg Edward, Henry or Charles" .)
