Gentle knock (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tap

'gentle knock' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tap that I've seen before include "It's called a faucet in America" , "that's less hard than 11 [BASH] or 22 [BATTER]" , "Light blow; draw sap from (tree)" , "non-violent strike" , "Dancing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the Newsday.com and the Penny Press.
