sin·an·i·mous /sɪnˈænɪməs/ adjective 1. Lacking the essential spirit or vital force of life; profoundly hollow. 2. Characterized by a state of being ‘without soul’; specifically referring to a person or object that remains physically present but is spiritually or emotionally vacant. Etymology From the Latin sine (“without”) + animus (“soul, mind, [breath of life]”). Unlike inanimate (which describes objects that have never possessed life), sinanimous implies a state of deprivation or the active absence of a spirit that ought to be there. Usage Note While inanimate is a clinical or [scientific] term for non-living matter (e.g., rocks, water), sinanimous is a literary or [philosophical] term used to describe a haunting or unnatural lack of vitality in things that typically possess it (e.g., a crowd, a home, or a human gaze).
