Another word for not doing well

Keith Bradford


  • #4

«Failing» or «falling behind» in his studies. He needs to put in more effort.

:thumbsup:

«Flagging» is another possibility, but it usually refers to physical effort rather than study.

Does it have to begin with an f?

How about ‘floundering’?

Thank you all for providing me with a new set of words. However, the word I was looking for was ‘flunking’.
Now I can use many more words in place of that word.

‘Flunking’ does

not

have the same meaning as ‘falling behind’, ‘flagging’ or ‘floundering’, s21d.

‘Flunk’ is a very informal and very American term meaning to fail an exam or to fail to meet a standard. There are two reasons why this would be wrong in your sample sentence:

1. Meaning:
It refers to a single event — for example, when a teacher gives you a grade lower than the one required to go up into the next class. It is not an ongoing situation: a student cannot be ‘flunking’.

2. Register:
The level of informality is completely wrong for this context. A teacher sending a formal message to a parent would not use a slang term such is this.

If you want to complete your sentence correctly, you could say this:

Your child is falling behind in his studies. He needs to put in more effort.

If you really want to use ‘flunk’, you could use it informally with friends in a sentence like I flunked my exam. That might be OK if you’re in an American English context and speaking fluent AmE. For an Indian person speaking Indian English in India, though, it might sound rather odd. It’s usually wise to stick with standard English.

or «not well understood».

My mind is slipping on it. Not ‘elusive’, more that it just hasn’t been well-examined.
Thanks!

I’ve seen variations on the following:

  • little studied
  • under-examined
  • open field
  • unexplored

These are often combined with relatively so the reviewers don’t carp.

Author I’m working with (ELL) used «understudied» but I’m not sure that’s a good idea since «understudy» is well known with a completely unrelated meaning.

Understudied (adj): An understudied subject has not been studied as much as it should be or as much as you would expect.

Example: The terrapin is a surprisingly understudied species.

There isn’t a single word for «not well studied», but there are adverbs such as little, poorly and relatively that are more commonly used in place of “not well”.

  • little-known / little known
  • relatively obscure
  • poorly studied
  • underresearched / under-researched

Cystic fibrosis: how to recognize this little-known illness

In short, this relatively obscure plant is far more interesting and scientifically valuable than anyone might have guessed.

Institutional racism is shown to account for significant continuities in the approach of universities to race equality, yet race in higher education is an under-researched area.
