Meaning one in Paris could be bother (9)

I believe the answer is:

importune

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'be bother' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't understand how one could define the other.

'meaning one in paris' is the wordplay.
'meaning' becomes 'import' (synonyms).
'one in paris' becomes 'une' ('one' in French).
'import'+'une'='IMPORTUNE'

'could' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
