Правильный ответ 3) — bright

Например: bright boy — сообразительный мальчик

By Dr Oliver Tearle (Loughborough University)

The English language possesses more than a few good words that mean ‘lazy’ or ‘a lazy person’. Below, as well as some of the more common synonyms for ‘lazy’ or ‘laziness’, we’ve trawled the old dictionaries and thesauri to find some of the best little-known synonyms for the word ‘lazy’ and its variations. (Being lazy is very different from feeling tired, and tiredness has its own synonyms.)

INDOLENT.

This word has been used to mean ‘slothful’, ‘lazy’, or ‘idle’ since at least the early eighteenth century. Interestingly, it originally meant ‘causing no pain’, as its etymology (literally, ‘not grieving’) testifies.

SLUGGISH.

What has sluggish, a fine synonym meaning ‘lazy’, to do with slugs? It’s pretty self-explanatory, given slugs’ slow-moving habits. Curiously, though, the gastropod was named after the term ‘sluggish’ had entered the English language as another word for ‘slow moving’ or ‘lazy’ (in the fifteenth century). The slimy creatures didn’t get their sluggish name until the eighteenth century.

SLOTHFUL.

Sticking with animals, what is the relationship between ‘slothful’, meaning lazy or slow, and the sloth? Again, the term ‘sloth’ to denote laziness or sluggishness was there first (from the twelfth century); the animal characterised by its sluggish behaviour was so named in the seventeenth century.

LOAFING.

What about ‘loafing’ – a word meaning ‘passing time idly’ – and its relationship to ‘loaf’ (of bread)? There probably isn’t a link, but the origins of the term ‘loafing’ to mean ‘idling’ are shrouded in mystery.

IDLE.

Coming from a Germanic root meaning ‘empty’ or ‘worthless’, the word ‘idle’ came to mean ‘lazy’ by around the year 1300, when it appears in the long poem Cursor Mundi (a medieval poem that provides the OED with many early instances of useful words).

TARDY.

More specifically meaning ‘slow’ – or, indeed, ‘sluggish’ – the word ‘tardy’ (from the Latin tardus, ‘slow’, whence we also get words like retardation to describe something slowing down) has been in use since the fifteenth century.

LAGGARD.

This word can be used as both an adjective and a noun, and describes someone who is lagging, hanging back, or loitering.

LETHARGIC.

This near-synonym for ‘lazy’, meaning ‘affected with inertness or inactivity; dull, sleepy, sluggish, apathetic’, came into being in the seventeenth century: the OED’s first citation is from John Donne’s ‘Second Anniversary’ from 1612: ‘To be thus stupid is Alacrity; / Men thus lethargique haue best Memory.’

‘Lethargy’ was originally a medical term denoting ‘a disorder characterized by morbid drowsiness or prolonged and unnatural sleep’ (OED). It was also used as another term for what we’d now call a stroke; Daniel Defoe’s cause of death in 1731 was listed as ‘a lethargy’.

IGNAVY.

This is a rare and obsolete term, a noun meaning ‘sluggishness’ or ‘sloth’. Etymologically, it literally means ‘not busy’ (from the Latin). Perhaps it’s due a revival?

BEDPRESSER.

Appearing in Shakespeare’s Henry IV Part 1, where Prince Hal uses it to describe – surprise, surprise – Falstaff (‘This sanguine coward, this bed-presser’), this handy noun for a lazy person was defined by Samuel Johnson in his 1755 Dictionary as ‘a heavy lazy fellow’.

JOTTLE.

This is an old Scots word – a verb. It is defined by one nineteenth-century dictionary thus: ‘To be apparently diligent and yet doing nothing, to be so about trifles.’

QUISBY.

The word ‘quisby’ means ‘an idle fellow’, and so is a glorious synonym for a lazy person, for someone who idles. However, the word – rare though it is – is slightly more common in the phrase ‘doing quisby’, which was old slang for idling or not working. Of uncertain etymology.

EYE-SERVANT.

Although now rare, this word, referring to a servant or employee who is hard-working or obedient only when observed by their employer, dates from the sixteenth century, and was used in one of the Protestant martyr Hugh Latimer’s sermons.

CLINOMANIA.

A more recent coinage, this twentieth-century word denotes the overwhelming desire to stay in bed.

LAZY-BONES.

Of surprisingly ancient vintage: the OED records this word in colloquial use from 1593.

LACKADAISICAL.

This word first appears in Laurence Sterne’s 1768 novel Tristram Shandy, although whether Sterne coined this handy synonym for ‘weak-willed and indolent’, it’s difficult to know for sure. Defined as ‘resembling one who is given to crying “Lackaday!”; full of vapid feeling or sentiment; affectedly languishing’ (OED).

WORKSHY.

Dating from 1883, this is one of the best synonyms for ‘lazy’ that denotes someone who knows they should be at work, but …

LAYABOUT.

Used to denote an idle loafer, this word is first recorded in 1932 (according to the OED). It’s something of a solecism – technically, one lies about rather than lays about – but it’s become one of the most popular nouns for a lazy person, and seems like a good word to conclude our list of the best synonyms for laziness and a lazy person.

The author of this article, Dr Oliver Tearle, is a literary critic and lecturer in English at Loughborough University. He is the author of, among others, The Secret Library: A Book-Lovers’ Journey Through Curiosities of History and The Great War, The Waste Land and the Modernist Long Poem.

Below is a massive list of lazy words — that is, words related to lazy. The top 4 are: stupid, dumb, tired and bad. You can get the definition(s) of a word in the list below by tapping the question-mark icon next to it. The words at the top of the list are the ones most associated with lazy, and as you go down the relatedness becomes more slight. By default, the words are sorted by relevance/relatedness, but you can also get the most common lazy terms by using the menu below, and there’s also the option to sort the words alphabetically so you can get lazy words starting with a particular letter. You can also filter the word list so it only shows words that are also related to another word of your choosing. So for example, you could enter «stupid» and click «filter», and it’d give you words that are related to lazy and stupid.

You can highlight the terms by the frequency with which they occur in the written English language using the menu below. The frequency data is extracted from the English Wikipedia corpus, and updated regularly. If you just care about the words’ direct semantic similarity to lazy, then there’s probably no need for this.

There are already a bunch of websites on the net that help you find synonyms for various words, but only a handful that help you find related, or even loosely associated words. So although you might see some synonyms of lazy in the list below, many of the words below will have other relationships with lazy — you could see a word with the exact opposite meaning in the word list, for example. So it’s the sort of list that would be useful for helping you build a lazy vocabulary list, or just a general lazy word list for whatever purpose, but it’s not necessarily going to be useful if you’re looking for words that mean the same thing as lazy (though it still might be handy for that).

If you’re looking for names related to lazy (e.g. business names, or pet names), this page might help you come up with ideas. The results below obviously aren’t all going to be applicable for the actual name of your pet/blog/startup/etc., but hopefully they get your mind working and help you see the links between various concepts. If your pet/blog/etc. has something to do with lazy, then it’s obviously a good idea to use concepts or words to do with lazy.

If you don’t find what you’re looking for in the list below, or if there’s some sort of bug and it’s not displaying lazy related words, please send me feedback using this page. Thanks for using the site — I hope it is useful to you! 🐂

That’s about all the lazy related words we’ve got! I hope this list of lazy terms was useful to you in some way or another. The words down here at the bottom of the list will be in some way associated with lazy, but perhaps tenuously (if you’ve currenly got it sorted by relevance, that is). If you have any feedback for the site, please share it here, but please note this is only a hobby project, so I may not be able to make regular updates to the site. Have a nice day! 🐞

getting lazier and «stupider?» or just «stupid»?

so «getting lazier and stupid», or «getting lazier and stupider»?

    Let’s see a complete sentence, IWantToImproveMyEnglish. :)

    • #3

    For example, «Although xxx has brought us conveniences such as xxx, xxx, and xxx, but it also make xxx getting lazier and stupider»

    P.S

    — Sorry about those xxxs… I’m a student and possibly the work will be submitted into a plagiarism system to check if I have copied the work online, so this page would possibly be found.

    • #4

    I’m sure the XXX’s don’t all refer to the same thing, but it would be helpful if you were to at least instantiate the last one (‘…also make xxx getting …’).

    …. or find some form of anonymous alternative — we need to know its part of speech (noun, verb, pronoun, etc.) Thank you.

    • #5

    Beryl is offering very valuable advice about why the grammar of the end of that sentence might not be completely correct. I just want to point out something semantic:

    I became tired. = I was not tired before, but then I became tired.
    I became more tired. = I was somewhat tired before, but then I became even more tired than I had been.

    • #6

    «Although (some sort of technologies) has brought us conveniences such as xxx, xxx, and xxx, but it also make (people) getting lazier and stupider»

    Should I say «getting lazier and stupid» or «getting lazier and more stupid» or «getting lazier and stupider?»

    • #7

    I’m not happy with ‘stupider’ as a form, and would much prefer ‘more stupid’.

    You could say «getting lazier and more stupid».

    Are people becoming lazier and more stupid?

    If you wish to imply that they are intrinsically linked, then you could say «more lazy and stupid».

    Are people becoming more lazy and stupid?, although it might be preferable to ask ‘Are people becoming more stupid and lazy?

    • #8

    Do we actually use ‘stupider’ in any situation?

    It seems like ‘more stupid’ is much preferable in any situation but wound’t in mean people are somewhat «stupid» before but they are «more stupid» now?

    • #9

    «Stupider» sounds very inappropriate for a school essay, as does «stupid,» actually.

    It seems like ‘more stupid’ is much preferable in any situation butwouldn’t it mean people were somewhat «stupid» before but they are «more stupid» now?

    Yes. But so would «people are becoming stupider.» Both the comparative forms imply that people were stupid before.

    • #10

    I’m not convinced by that. Consider ‘It’s dark, but becoming lighter.’.

    • #11

    That does make sense, Beryl — maybe because «lighter» means «less dark»? For whatever reason, when I hear «people are becoming stupider,» and particularly when I hear «people are becoming more stupid,» I really think that people are already stupid to some degree.

    WildWest


    • #12

    If I have to share my opinion over this, it has to be «getting lazier and more stupid». It sounds better this way, ain’t it?

    I also have not seen it used as «stupider», and I’m pretty sure the grammatically right usage is «more stupid».

    I’m hard-pressed to think of a POSITIVE word for «stupid». How could being stupid be a good thing? (Well, it might be good for me for someone else to be stupid, so that I can defeat him in some competition or take advantage of him, but it’s not good for him.)

    The closest to a postive word that I can think of is «simple». Like you might say, «Yeah, yeah, you have all these complex arguments, but I’m a simple guy, it just seems to me that …» «Simple» is sometimes used when you want to say that another person is being too clever, perhaps making something more complicated than it needs to be, or is trying to fool others by using fancy language to cover up a fallacy.

    A common euphemism is «slow». As in, «We’ll be offerring tutoring sessions to help the slow students pass this class.» When I was in school it was common to talk about the smart kids as «gifted students» and the dumb kids as «slow students». I don’t know if these terms are still common.

    Another euphemism was that class for less-smart kids were called «special education», and so the kids were called «special».

    You could use «silly» or «cute» in some contexts.

    But in general, I’d avoid looking for any word that means anything remotely like «stupid» if you’re trying to keep a conversation friendly. Maybe there’s a word in Spanish that would be perceived in a friendly way, but I don’t think there’s such a word in English. You can try to make it less offensive by using euphemisms, but it’s still an insult.
