How it's used

Describes a state of lacking interest or motivation, often implying that something failed to meet expectations. It carries a slightly stronger sense of disappointment or weariness compared to just saying boring. It is frequently used to describe a person's demeanor when they are visibly unengaged with an activity.

Common mistake
