What does "naive" mean?

Rebecca

In this context, "naive" means to be inexperienced and "innocent" in terms of age. It can also mean to be foolish- without judgment or wisdom in a situation. Ex: Jane acted naively when they asked her questions. She pretended to know nothing. Ex: I was so naive when I said yes to that scammer! They took all my money. => lack of judgment or wisdom. Ex: Peter was so naive in his twenties. He's matured a lot now.
