Nasty smile (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sneer

'nasty smile' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sneer that I've seen before include "Scoff, scorn" , "Be derisive; Sheridan's Critic" , "Derisive remark" , "Show contempt with scornful expression or words" , "Speak contemptuously" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and the L.A. Times Daily.
