Crossword Genius

Minor act of neglect (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slight

This clue is a triple definition!

'minor' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'act' is the second definition.
(slight is a kind of act)

'of' acts as a link.

'neglect' is the third definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for slight that I've seen before include "Disregard - snub" , "Insignificant, flimsy" , "Slim or tenuous" , "of no great significance" , "Affront of delicate sort" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
