Give a lift (5)

Ross

There are a few possibilities for this:

Which length description are you looking for?:

5

7

I believe this is a double definition.

'give' is the first definition.
(I know that raise is a kind of bring out)

'a lift' is the second definition.
(I know that lift can be written as raise)

(Other definitions for raise that I've seen before include "Put up" , "Gather" , "Care for during childhood" , "Pick up" , "Erect; grow" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The New York Times.
