         DefinitionShort: pertaining to not being useful

         Glosses: ['useless', 'not useful', 'worthless']

         Comments: In a number of languages usefulness or lack of usefulness can only be expressed in terms of a verb meaning ‘to help,’ so that in {S:05700101100008} it may be necessary to translate ‘at one time he did not help you at all and now he can help both you and me.’
