The answer

VAGUE

What vague means

Unclear or imprecise in meaning, expression, or form; not clearly or explicitly stated or defined.

Where the word comes from

From Old French vague, meaning "wandering" or "vacant," derived from Latin vagus, which carried both senses of physically roaming and mentally uncertain or unfocused. The Latin root likely comes from a Proto-Indo-European base meaning "to wander" or "to move about." The modern sense of "imprecisely stated or understood" developed naturally from the idea of something lacking clear boundaries or direction.
