Real; current (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

actual

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">This clue is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">real</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">current</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(actual can describe how things are currently)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for actual that I've seen before include "Real and concrete, not imaginary" , "Real and existing (6)" , "Real, existing in fact" , "Real - true" , "Real, authentic" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
