Short time out? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nap

'short time out?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for nap that I've seen before include "Take forty winks" , "Short sleep, card-game" , "Pile of material" , "raised bits of velvet" , "Card game - quick sleep" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
