Long live! (4)

I believe the answer is:

viva

'long live' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for viva that I've seen before include "Long live! - an examination" , "Oral examination" , "test" , "Long live! - oral exam" , "Hail to the Spaniards" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Telegraph and the Universal.
