Lamentable (6)
I believe the answer is:
tragic
<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">lamentable</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 tragic that I've seen before include "Greatly distressing" , "Shocking" , "Causing extreme distress or sorrow" , "Deeply distressing" , "Ill-fated" .)
