A loud, piercing cry (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scream

'a loud piercing cry' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for scream that I've seen before include "Hilarious character" , "Person who seems extremely funny?" , "Loud shrill cry" , "funny man" , "comedian?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
