Knight's title (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sir

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">knight's title</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(knights are addressed as 'sir')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for sir that I've seen before include "Title of Kt or Bart" , "Honourable title" , "Formal term of address" , "Poet and novelist" , "Formal and deferential address to a man" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the Penny Press, the King Feature Syndicate, the Evening Standard, The Star Tribune, The Times, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Irish Times, the LA Times, The Daily Mail, The Washington Post, the Newsday, The Telegraph, The Independent, The Wall Street Journal, The Mirror, the Universal, The Sun and The New York Times.
