Smaller, being younger (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

minor

I believe this is a triple definition!

'smaller' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'being' is the second definition.
(minor is a kind of being)

'younger' is the third definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for minor that I've seen before include "Unimportant or unable to vote" , "Morris car; tending to melancholy (mus.)" , "Of lesser importance" , "Slight; little known" , "One hasn't reached legal majority" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
