The word stupid is one of the most popular terms when it comes to expressing that this or that individual behaves, thinks, or shows in an awkward way, with stupidity and lack of intelligence.
It should be noted that this situation can occur in a circumstantial way, that is, it can be unleashed before a certain fact that mobilizes the person to act in the aforementioned way, or failing that, it can be a characteristic of regular and habitual action in the person in question.
On the other hand, when a word or a behavior represents or accounts for the stupidity available to the person who practices them we usually designate them as stupid.
While, stupidity refers to the clumsiness or delay in understanding the issues or situations, and as we just saw the comment or the fact that is stupid. Mostly we link it to nonsense or something that does not have a certain logic.
Likewise, as with the term stupidity, the word stupid has for all the people who speak our language a violent implication and contempt, because basically its reference asserts the use when someone does not present intelligence when acting or thinking. For example, it is that we widely use it as an insult to someone when we want to stoke the belief that it is not good to do or solve something.
With an example we will see it more clearly ... A person makes a mistake doing something and the most common thing is that whoever observes, especially if it is a couple, tells him that he is stupid for not having known or been able to do it. Ideally, instead of saying stupid instantly, it should be explained in a pedagogical way and without that verbal aggression how to do it. Unfortunately, it is much more common for us to come across the first exemplified case than the second alternative.
It is worth mentioning that this word has an impressive variety of synonyms, among which the most stand out: fool, lelo, idiot and fool. While the concept that opposes it is that of Ready , which refers to an individual who stands out for his sagacity, ability and intelligence when acting and thinking.
