Word to the Wise: Inane

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

Example (as used by MaryEllen Tribby today): “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.”
