Threats can seem funny (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

menaces

'threats' is the definition.
('menace' can be a synonym of 'threat')

'can seem funny' is the wordplay.
'funny' indicates anagramming the letters.
'can'+'seem'='canseem'
'canseem' anagrammed gives 'MENACES'.

(Other definitions for menaces that I've seen before include "Threats" , "Threatens" .)
