Weaken understanding (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

compromise

This clue is a double definition.

'weaken' is the first definition.
(I know that weaken can be written as compromise)

'understanding' is the second definition.
(I know that compromise is a type of settlement)

(Other definitions for compromise that I've seen before include "Middle course" , "Settlement" , "accommodation" , "Settle by concession" , "Trade-off" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
