Make less heavy (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lighten

'make less heavy' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for lighten that I've seen before include "lift" , "Make less burdensome" , "Become brighter" , "make fairer" , "Become less serious" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Guardian and The Mirror.
