Disapprove strongly (7)

I believe the answer is:

deplore

'disapprove strongly' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for deplore that I've seen before include "Condemn" , "Lament" , "Regret deeply and strongly disapprove" , "Bemoan" , "Sorrow over" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
