English Word of The Day: Immature

Question

Immature.....inmaduro

"I think it is immature when you can"t control your temperament"

"Creo que es inmadura cuando no puede controlar su temperamento"

The word "temperament" seems like an odd choice here, considering temperament generally refers to one's characteristic nature or natural disposition. I would think that, perhaps, "emotions" or "temper" would be a more natural choice. - Izanoni1, Feb 11, 2012
