Permission to be absent in Latin (5)
I believe the answer is:
exeat
This clue might be a double definition.
'permission' is the first definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'absent in latin' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'to be' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for exeat that I've seen before include "... [23A=PASS]" , "Leave of absence" , "Pass-out" , "Permission to be absent from college/school" , "Permission for absence from school" .)
