Crossword Genius

Terribly moist leaves out! (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

omits

'leaves out' is the definition.
('omit' can be a synonym of 'leave out')

'terribly moist' is the wordplay.
'terribly' indicates an anagram.
'moist' is an anagram of 'OMITS'.

(Other definitions for omits that I've seen before include "overlooks" , "misses out" , "Leaves out or neglects" , "skips" , "Forgets" .)
