Speak hoarsely (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rasp

'speak hoarsely' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rasp that I've seen before include "fruit" , "Abrade" , "Harsh grating sound" , "Filing tool" , "Coarse file or grating sound" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, The Mirror, the Newsday, The New York Times and the USA Today.
