Ross

I believe the answer is:

rote

(Other definitions for rote that I've seen before include "Habitual routine" , "Repetition from memory" , "Repetition for learners" , "By . . . . - by memory without thinking" , "Repetition of something to be learned" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
