Take in or suck up (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

absorb

This clue is a double definition.

'take in' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'suck up' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for absorb that I've seen before include "Grip" , "Occupy the mind fully as good book will" , "Draw in, knowledge or food" , "'Imbibe, assimilate (6)'" , "Understand" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
