Say sorry (9)

I believe the answer is:

apologise

'say sorry' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for apologise that I've seen before include "Ask forgiveness" , "Express regret (for action)" , "Say sorry, my mistake" , "Express regret for a wrong (S, not Z)" , "Say one is sorry" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times, The Guardian and The Mirror.
