Word of the Day: Lazy

December 14th, 2006 | Jeff Boulter | General

lazy (laa-zee)
ADJECTIVE.

1. Resistant to work or exertion; disposed to idleness.
2. Slow-moving; sluggish: a lazy river.
3. Conducive to idleness or indolence: a lazy summer day.
4. Depicted as reclining or lying on its side. Used of a brand on livestock.

Purely Hypothetical Example:

Signing up for and installing Skype on your laptop to make a local phone call because you’re lying in bed and too lazy to get up and grab a real phone.
