Ross

I believe the answer is:

chide

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">This clue is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">scold</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that scold can be written as chide)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">rebuke</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that rebuke can be written as chide)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for chide that I've seen before include "Santa's laugh" , "Tear off strip" , "Admonish" , "Reprove" , "Tell off" .)
