Absurd, laughable (9)
I believe the answer is:
ludicrous
This clue is a double definition.
'absurd' is the first definition.
(I know that absurd can be written as ludicrous)
'laughable' is the second definition.
(I know that laughable can be written as ludicrous)
(Other definitions for ludicrous that I've seen before include "Farcical" , "Silly and laughable" , "Nonsensical" , "Utterly laughable" , "Absurd, ridiculous" .)
