I believe the answer is:

circa

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this clue is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">around</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(circa means around or approximately)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">about</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for circa that I've seen before include "Preposition meaning about, usually preceding a date" , "Approximately (Lat.)" , "More or less" , "Roughly" , "About (a time)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
