Stress on a word (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emphasis

'stress on a word' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for emphasis that I've seen before include "Stress or significance" , "Stress, special importance" , "Accentutation" , "Weight" , "Stress, accentuation" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and the Sydney Morning Herald.
