Crossword Genius

A type of hatred (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aversion

'hatred' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a type' is the wordplay.
'type' becomes 'version' (version is a kind of type).
'a'+'version'='AVERSION'

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for aversion that I've seen before include "A strong dislike or antipathy" , "Strong disinclination" , "an object of dislike" , "horror" , "Dislike, hatred" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
