The answer

TEPID

What tepid means

Slightly warm or lukewarm, or showing a lack of enthusiasm or interest.

Where the word comes from

From Latin *tepidus*, meaning "lukewarm," derived from *tepere*, "to be warm." The Latin root is thought to come from Proto-Indo-European *tep-*, related to "heat" or "warmth." The word entered English via Old French *tepide* during the medieval period, eventually settling into its modern form with the same sense of mild warmth or, figuratively, lack of enthusiasm.
