what is the japanese word Zetsuboudearu in english?

usually I am fluent in Japanese..though I don't know this combination word right off hand..

Update:

ah,, nevermind.. :( ..

lol I was trying to translate something a friend had sent me,,

and she combined zetsubou and aru :P adding de as in desu :)

lol

Update 2:

@ 美青 -- thank you :) i shall pass it on,, :)

without the kana its a little difficult for me to translate things .. better spoken than written for me I'm afraid. :) thank you greatly

Update 3:

:-( I feel rather idiotic.. :( .. maybe its too early in the morning for multi language conversations.. lol ..

slowly forgetting a language that I dont get to use often.. :( ..

thank you 美青,, when it allows me to choose the best answer, i will give you 10 points,,

,, i think its time for bed..for me. :(
