English
Adjective
en-adj
- Overly simple.
- In a manner that simplifies the issue to a degree where many important details are lost
- not complex ; simple ; usually an insult
Usage notes
This is not to be conflated with “simple”. simplistic implies simplicity to excess, whereas simple does not. The phrase “overly simplistic” is therefore a tautology.
