stupidity is a quality or state of being stupid, or an act or idea that exhibits properties of being stupid.[1] the root word stupid,[2] which can serve as an adjective or noun itself, comes from the latin verb stupere, for being numb or astonished, and is related to stupor.[3]
according to the online merriam-webster dictionary, the words "stupid" and "stupidity" entered the english language in 1541. since then, stupidity has taken place along with "fool," "idiot," "dumb," "moron," and related concepts as a pejorative appellation for human misdeeds, whether purposeful or accidental, due to absence of mental capacity.
the modern english word "stupid" has a broad range of application, from being slow of mind (indicating a lack of intelligence, care or reason), dullness of feeling or sensation (torpidity, senseless, insensitivity), or lacking interest or point (vexing, exasperating). it can either infer a congenital lack of capacity for reasoning, or a temporary state of daze or slow-mindedness.
