Part of a word (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

syllable

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">part of a word</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">('syllable' is part of 'word')</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for syllable that I've seen before include "Sounding part of a word" , "Unit of a spoken word" , "Unit of sound in word" , "Division of word" , "Section of word" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the Penny Press and The Guardian.
