Irritate (5)

Ross

'irritate' is the definition.
(I know that irritate can be written as chafe)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for chafe that I've seen before include "Make sore or warm by rubbing" , "Wear away by rubbing" , "Rub; become sore" , "Rub, irritate" , "are galling" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the Penny Press, The Independent, the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times, The Telegraph, The Wall Street Journal, The Star Tribune, the Evening Standard, The Times and The Mirror.
