lachrymose

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'inclined to weep' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'so my rachel unfortunately' is the wordplay.
'unfortunately' indicates anagramming the letters (a bad or unfortunate spelling).
'so'+'my'+'rachel'='somyrachel'
'somyrachel' anagrammed gives 'LACHRYMOSE'.

'is' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lachrymose that I've seen before include "In bits" , "Weepy" , "showing sorrow" , "Sad" , "Tearful (literary)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
