Extirpate (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

uproot

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">extirpate</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that extirpate can be written as uproot)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for uproot that I've seen before include "Pull (plant) out of soil" , "Tear up from natural location, eradicate" , "Completely destroy" , "Remove from soil" , "Move forcibly" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com, The Times, the Canadiana, the King Feature Syndicate and the Sydney Morning Herald.
