Word of the Day

Inane (ih-NANE) -- from the Latin for "empty" -- means foolish or pointless; lacking sense or meaning.

Example: "When I saw Liz approaching that morning, I assumed I was in for some inane small talk. But it turned out she is a smart, well spoken, and interesting person who has added something to my life."
