Give a formal speech (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

orate

'give a formal speech' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for orate that I've seen before include "Give speech" , "Deliver a speech" , "Talk pompously" , "talk at length" , "Declaim or rant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, the USA Today, the Universal, the Newsday.com and the Newsday.
