LEARN

Not available

Explanation:

Pick up" here doesn’t mean physically grabbing something—it’s a playful hint meaning to acquire or absorb knowledge. At school, you "pick up" lessons, skills, or facts, which is essentially what "learn" means. The clue uses a common phrase in a clever way to point to the answer without being too obvious.
