Crossword Genius

Put in funny resident (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inserted

'put in' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'funny resident' is the wordplay.
'funny' indicates anagramming the letters.
'resident' is an anagram of 'INSERTED'.

(Other definitions for inserted that I've seen before include "Put in" , "taken out? The opposite" , "Introduced" .)
