INSIPIENT \een.see.pyent\ is a word meaning stupid, foolish, lacking in intelligence, wisdom or insight.
There is also, INCIPIENT \een.see.pyent\, which means (of something), just starting or beginning; it means new, nascent, budding.
They are both adjectives.
E.g.
At the meeting this morning, we were all dismayed at his INSIPIENT ideas. I am still wondering where HR found this young man, honestly. For heaven’s sake, this is an INCIPIENT project in dire need of very novel and fresh ideas, not dead-on-arrival postulations and conjectures. Oh dear!
