Apologies for the previous question, it lacked proper context and was incomplete. Though "mundane" was the correct answer, it didn't make complete sense since context was missing.

You can find the article here: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.deccanherald.com/amp/opinion/panorama/the-metaverse-explained-by-an-eight-year-old-1049058.html

We will be mindful in future to post questions with more context.
