Ross

I believe the answer is:

lent

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">period before easter</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for lent that I've seen before include "Advanced" , "Christian period of abstinence" , "Gave for a limited period" , "Period of fasting" , "Provided loans" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Times, the Universal, the Thinks.com, The Mirror, The Guardian, the L.A. Times Daily, the Evening Standard, the Newsday.com and the Newsday.
