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