uncurious

Lacking any wonder

Uncurious describes a lack of interest or desire to learn, explore, or ask questions.

An uncurious person doesn't wonder about things, doesn't seek out new information, and remains content with what they already know.

The word often carries a mildly negative connotation, suggesting intellectual passivity or indifference: He seemed strangely uncurious about where the money had come from.

The uncurious student never raised her hand.
