Hopeless (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abject

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">hopeless</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(similar in meaning)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for abject that I've seen before include "Lacking all dignity" , "Submissive, miserable" , "Obsequious or grovelling, as apology may be" , "Wretched, lacking all pride - perhaps an apology" , "Mean, wretched" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
