Expectorated (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spat

'expectorated' is the definition.
(spitting is a kind of expectorating)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for spat that I've seen before include "Pat's involved in squabble" , "Unimportant quarrel between Pats" , "Old leg wear - brief quarrel" , "Small altercations between Pats" , "Expectorated in slight quarrel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Guardian.
