Forgiving (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lenient

'forgiving' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for lenient that I've seen before include "Easy, soft" , "Tolerant, rather than strict" , "Tolerant, merciful" , "Clement" , "Forgiving, gentle" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
