immaterial
/ˌɪməˈtɪɹi.əl/
In everyday conversation, "immaterial" is most commonly used to mean "irrelevant." It is often used in formal settings, such as law courts or business meetings, to dismiss a point that does not affect the final decision. When referring to things that are not physical (like spirits or thoughts), it is a more philosophical or religious term and is less common in casual daily speech.
