Pure, say (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

utter

I believe this is a double definition.

'pure' is the first definition.
(meaning complete or absolute)

'say' is the second definition.
(to utter something is to speak or say it)

(Other definitions for utter that I've seen before include "Say; total" , "in toto" , "Absolute - say" , "talk" , "Dead" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
