Was acquainted with (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

knew

'was acquainted with' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for knew that I've seen before include "Had learnt; sounds like modern" , "Was aware of the fact" , "Understood" , "Was cognisant or aware of" , "Was conscious of" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the USA Today and The Times.
