Take on as one's own (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adopt

'take on as one's own' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for adopt that I've seen before include "Foster" , "Take into one's family" , "Take on (another's child)" , "Acquire" , "Espouse" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and the Sydney Morning Herald.
