ethereal
This word is most often used in poetic, artistic, or formal contexts. It describes things that feel magical or otherworldly rather than physical and heavy. When using it to describe a person's appearance or voice, it suggests a beauty that is fragile and ghostly, almost as if they are not fully present in the physical world.

Jackson attempts to sound sophisticated by using 'ethereal' to describe digital art, while Ryan uses Gen-Z slang ('bet', 'mid', 'tbh') to dismissively agree without actually caring about the aesthetic value.
