What does STUPID mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Lacking good sense or the ability to think clearly; foolish or slow to understand.
Calling a person stupid is a judgement of their thinking or of one particular choice, and it ranges from mild teasing between friends to a sharp insult. The word reaches English through French from the Latin stupere, to be numb or astonished, so its oldest sense was a dazed, dulled state of mind. Today it is applied just as often to things, such as a stupid rule or a stupid mistake, as to people.
