derelict

Read a random definition: collateral consanguinity

A quick definition of derelict:

Derelict means something or someone that has been left behind or abandoned. This can refer to personal property that has been left with no intention of being reclaimed, like a ship left at sea. When something is derelict, it is considered more dangerous and can have legal implications for salvaging.

A more thorough explanation:

Derelict is an adjective used to describe something that has been abandoned or neglected. It can also be a noun referring to a ship or personal property that has been abandoned.

Example 1: The old factory on the outskirts of town was derelict, with broken windows and overgrown weeds.

Example 2: The ship was found derelict at sea, with no crew on board and no sign of recent activity.

Example 3: The abandoned car in the parking lot was considered derelict, as it had been left there for months without any attempt to move it.

These examples illustrate how derelict can be used to describe something that has been abandoned or neglected. In the first example, the factory has been left to decay and is no longer in use. In the second example, the ship has been deserted and left to drift at sea. In the third example, the car has been left in the same spot for an extended period of time without any attempt to retrieve it.
