Crossword Genius

Sins circulated with one's tendency to pry (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nosiness

'tendency to pry' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'sins circulated with one's' is the wordplay.
'circulated with' indicates anagramming the letters.
'sins' with its letters anagrammed with 'ones' makes 'NOSINESS'.

(Other definitions for nosiness that I've seen before include "Prying" , "Curiosity of nasal kind" , "Inquisitive quality" , "Tendency to pry" , "Inquisitiveness" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
