Dissuade (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deter

'dissuade' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for deter that I've seen before include "Discourage or prevent from doing something" , "Cause not to do something" , "Try to prevent" , "Discourage (someone from an action)" , "stop" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Mirror, the USA Today, the Evening Standard, the Newsday, the Penny Press, the LA Times, The Telegraph and The New York Times.
