A language from overseas (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erse

'a language' is the definition.
(historical term for Scottish Gaelic)

'from overseas' is the wordplay.
'from' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ERSE' is hidden within 'overseas'.

(Other definitions for erse that I've seen before include "Possibly the language" , "Old Celtic language" , "Old name for Celtic languages" , "Old language spoken by strange seer" , "Celtic tongue" .)
