Bear using pose (9)
I believe the answer is:
withstand
'bear' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'using pose' is the wordplay.
'using' becomes 'with' (eg 'fixed with glue' means 'fixed using glue').
'pose' becomes 'stand' (standing is a kind of posing).
'with'+'stand'='WITHSTAND'
(Other definitions for withstand that I've seen before include "Bear" , "Remain undamaged by" , "Resist, hold out" , "weather" , "Resist or brave something" .)
