trivial
(wn) | trivial
adj 1: (informal) small and of little importance; "a fiddling
sum of money"; "a footling gesture"; "our worries are
lilliputian compared with those of countries that are at
war"; "a little (or small) matter"; "a dispute over
niggling details"; "limited to petty enterprises";
"piffling efforts"; "giving a police officer a free meal
may be against the law, but it seems to be a picayune
infraction" [syn: fiddling, footling, lilliputian,
little, niggling, piddling, piffling, petty,
picayune, trivial]

(jargon) | trivial
adj.
1. Too simple to bother detailing.
2. Not worth the speaker's time.
3. Complex, but solvable by methods so well known that anyone not utterly {
cretinous} would have thought of them already.
4. Any problem one has already solved (some claim that hackish trivial
usually evaluates to “I've seen it before”). Hackers' notions of triviality
may be quite at variance with those of non-hackers. See nontrivial, {
uninteresting}.
The physicist Richard Feynman, who had the hacker nature to an amazing
degree (see his essay “Los Alamos From Below” in Surely You're Joking, Mr.
Feynman!), defined trivial theorem as “one that has already been proved”.

Anthus trivialis
(gcide) | Pipit \Pip"it\, n. [So named from its call note.] (Zool.)
Any one of numerous species of small singing birds belonging
to Anthus and allied genera, of the family
Motacillid[ae]. They strongly resemble the true larks in
habits, colors, and the great length of the hind claw. They
are, therefore, often called titlarks, and pipit larks.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The meadow pipit (Anthus pratensis); the {tree
pipit}, or tree lark (Anthus trivialis); and the
rock pipit, or sea lark (Anthus obscurus) are
well-known European species. The common American pipit,
or brown lark, is Anthus Pensilvanicus. The Western
species (Anthus Spraguei) is called the {American
skylark}, on account of its musical powers.
