Imprecise — loose (6)

I believe the answer is:

sloppy

This clue is a double definition.

'imprecise' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'loose' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for sloppy that I've seen before include "Careless and messy" , "Mawkish" , "Careless; watery" , "'Careless, shoddy (6)'" , "maudlin" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
