Eastern honorific (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sri

'eastern honorific' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sri that I've seen before include "Asian gentleman" , "Indian address" , "Country formerly Ceylon" , "Indian title of respect" , "... Lanka, formerly Ceylon" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The New York Times.
