Almost on "E" (3)
I believe the answer is:
low
'almost on e' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for low that I've seen before include "Inferior; not loud" , "Deep sound of cattle - not high" , "Inferior, cow's call" , "Dejected; moo" , "Not elevated, may be base" .)
