Intend the German to twist (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

meander

'to twist' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'intend the german' is the wordplay.
'intend' becomes 'mean' (synonyms).
'the german' becomes 'der' ('the' in German).
'mean'+'der'='MEANDER'

(Other definitions for meander that I've seen before include "Wind, bend" , "Wander idly" , "roundabout route" , "Dear men (anag) - wander" , "Wind (like a river)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
