listless (LIST less) This adjective, which comes from Middle English where “list” could refer to interest or desire, works as pretty much as a synonym for apathetic. Unlike that word, however, listless can refer to a physical as well as an emotional state.

  • After her best friend Sheila moved hundreds of miles away, Lola felt lonely and listless for a time without the daily pleasure of her company.
  • A bad case of flu left Allan both looking and feeling listless even after the doctor allowed him to return to school.
