extraneous
adjective
ex·tra·ne·ous ek-ˈstrā-nē-əs 
extraneously adverb
extraneousness noun
Did you know?
We'll try not to weigh you down with a lot of extraneous information about the word extraneous, but we will tell you that it has been a part of the English language since at least 1638. It derives from the Latin word extraneus, which literally means "external." Extraneus is also the root of the words strange and estrange ("to alienate the affections or confidence of").
