"Negligible" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
Negligible refers to something that is extremely small or insignificant, barely worth considering or noticing. It can also mean negligible in importance or consequence, having little or no effect on a situation. In science, negligible often describes a quantity that is so small it can be ignored or discounted in calculations.
To neglect something or someone means to forget about, ignore, or pay no attention to it. It can also mean to fail to take care of or provide for it properly. For example, a person who neglects their health by not exercising or eating properly is not taking care of their physical well-being.
