Start, commence (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

begin

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'start' is the first definition.
(I know that start is a kind of begin)

'commence' is the second definition.
(I know that commence is a kind of begin)

(Other definitions for begin that I've seen before include "Institute" , "Make a start" , "former Israeli Nobel peace prize winner" , "Launch" , "Monachem --" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
