[1913 Webster]
1. Destitute of the power of moving itself, or of active
resistance to motion; as, matter is inert.

powerless for an expected or desired effect; as, the noble
gases are chemically inert.
Syn: Inactive; dull; passive; indolent; sluggish; slothful;
lazy; lifeless; irresolute; stupid; senseless;
insensible.
Usage: Inert, Inactive, Sluggish. A man may be inactive
from mere lack of stimulus to effort; but one who is
inert has something in his constitution or his habits
which operates like a weight holding him back from
exertion. Sluggish is still stronger, implying some
defect of temperament which directly impedes action.
Inert and inactive are negative, sluggish is positive.

Can boast but little virtue; and, inert
Through plenty, lose in morals what they gain
In manners -- victims of luxurious ease.

obscurity. --Johnson.
