In Reply to: It certainly is underused... posted by musetap on May 26, 2021 at 22:28:59:
Because puerile comes from the Latin word "puer" which means "boy." The word for "girl" in Latin is "puella." A good nonspecific word would be juvenile but you're right -- "girlish" doesn't have the same connotation.
Knew those four years of high school Latin would come in handy one day. :)
