Another denial? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

not

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'denial?' is the definition.

'another' is the wordplay.
'NOT' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I am not sure how the hidden word is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for not that I've seen before include "Negatory word" , "Negation of what follows" , "In no way, never" , "logically, operation needed" , "Word of negation" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
