Cut dramatically (5)
I believe the answer is:
slash
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">cut dramatically</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for slash that I've seen before include "Punctuation mark" , "Violently cut" , "Lacerate" , "Oblique stroke" , "something between a month and a year" .)
