Approach; close (4)
I believe the answer is:
near
This clue is a double definition.
'approach' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'close' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)
(Other definitions for near that I've seen before include "A short distance away" , "Close at hand" , "(Get) close to" , "Parsimonious (informal)" , "unlikely to spend much?" .)
