🇺🇸
/ˈmɔːrɑːn/
🇬🇧
/ˈmɔːrɒn/
A very rude term for someone who is thought to be unintelligent.
He called me a moron when I forgot his name.
A term once used in psychology to describe a person with low intelligence, now considered very offensive.
Using the term 'moron' to describe someone's intelligence is considered offensive today.
