Zinger (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

jape

'zinger' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for jape that I've seen before include "Practical joke, jest" , "Trick - joke - jest" , "Jolly joke" , "Trick or prank" , "Lark" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The Wall Street Journal.
