Response to a slight (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slap

'response to a slight' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for slap that I've seen before include "Hit with a flat hand" , "Strike (in the face)" , "Sharp smack" , "Mild punishment" , "Cuff" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com and the Newsday.
