Moers in Germany accommodates char (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

singe

'char' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'moers in germany accommodates' is the wordplay.
'accommodates' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'SINGE' is hidden within 'moers in germany'.

(Other definitions for singe that I've seen before include "slight burn" , "Char, burn slightly" , "Burn; ignes (anag.)" , "Result of match accident" , "Earnest entreaty" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
