Speak pompously (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

orate

'speak pompously' is the definition.
(to orate is to give a speech)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for orate that I've seen before include "Make a formal address" , "Make a formal speech" , "Speak formally" , "make speeches" , "talk at length" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the L.A. Times Daily, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, the Universal, The Independent and The Times.
