Is prone to untruth? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lying

I believe this is a double definition.

'is prone' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'untruth?' is the second definition.
(I know that lying is a type of falsity)

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for lying that I've seen before include "retailing pork pies" , "Spread out" , "Mendacious; recumbent" , "Not straight" , "Deceit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
