Persuade with flattery (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cajole

'persuade with flattery' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for cajole that I've seen before include "'Coax, inveigle (6)'" , "Coaxingly persuade" , "'Coax, sweet-talk (6)'" , "Gently influence" , "Persuade using flattery" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The New York Times.
