mundane
의미: Lacking interest or excitement; dull and ordinary; relating to the everyday world rather than the spiritual.
Mundane is commonly used to describe tasks, routines, or aspects of life that are tediously ordinary. It collocates frequently with 'tasks,' 'details,' 'existence,' and 'reality.' In its original and more formal sense, it means 'of this earthly world' as opposed to the spiritual or celestial, though this usage is now largely confined to academic and philosophical writing.
