Crossword Genius

Lie about attitude (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

repose

'lie' is the definition.
(reposing is a kind of liing)

'about attitude' is the wordplay.
'about' becomes 're' (common abbreviation for 'with reference to').
'attitude' becomes 'pose' (I've seen this before).
're'+'pose'='REPOSE'

(Other definitions for repose that I've seen before include "Lie at rest" , "peace" , "State of tranquillity" , "calm" , "place" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
