喜樂美語
  1. 1a/ʌnˈɪntrəstɪŋ/無趣的

    Not interesting; boring or dull, so it does not make you want to give it your attention.

    「uninteresting」就是 interesting（有趣的）加上 un-（不），意思是「不有趣、無聊、平淡」。它比 boring 客氣、溫和一點——boring 是「很無聊、讓人受不了」，uninteresting 只是「沒什麼吸引力、引不起興趣」。常用來形容書、課、地方、話題。

From the word’s history

From un- + interesting.

由 un-（不）加 interesting（有趣的）組成。

Wiktionary

interesting with 'un-' put in front — something that simply fails to pull your attention toward it.

可以想成就是 interesting（有趣的）前面加上 un-（不、沒有）。interesting 的東西會把你的注意力吸過去；加上 un- 之後，這東西沒有那股拉力，無法讓你想多看、多聽、多想，於是讓人覺得平淡、無聊。
