Anele (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anoint

'anele' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for anoint that I've seen before include "Consecrate with sacred oils" , "Administer a sacred oil" , "Administer sacred oils as to the sick" , "Consecrate with oil or ointment" , "Confirm as successor" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
