Crossword Genius

Trendy nurse to propose (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

intend

'propose' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'trendy nurse' is the wordplay.
'trendy' becomes 'in'.
'nurse' becomes 'tend' (I've seen this before).
'in'+'tend'='INTEND'

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for intend that I've seen before include "Purport" , "Have as purpose or plan" , "Tinned (anag.)" , "Mean; aim" , "Mean; propose" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
