Cause to burn (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ignite

'cause to burn' is the definition.
(igniting is a kind of causing to burn)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ignite that I've seen before include "Catch fire; provoke" , "Set fire to, light up" , "Kindle Fire" , "Put a match to" , "'Set alight, fire up (6)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Newsday.
