Small dalliance (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trifling

I believe this is a double definition.

'small' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'dalliance' is the second definition.
(I know that dalliance can be written as trifling)

(Other definitions for trifling that I've seen before include "Unimportant, trivial" , "Minor" , "Paltry" , "Inconsequential" , "insignificant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
