Pretentious person (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pseud

'pretentious person' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for pseud that I've seen before include "Socially pretentious person" , "Poser" , "Pretentious type" , "Poseur (colloq.)" , "Pretender - fraud" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
