Learn English – Word for someone who doesn’t know any latest trends

word-request

Is there a word for someone who doesn't know any new trends? The things that everyone talks about.

For example, someone who doesn't know the new popular movie star or TV show that everyone is crazy about at the time.

Someone who'd often hear, "How could you not know this? Everyone is doing it / has it these days."

I can think of "being shut off from the world", but I wonder if there's a name for someone like that.

Best Answer

You could say that person is "living under a rock". It's an idiom that describes someone being unaware of notable events.

e.g. "You've never heard of instagram? Have you been living under a rock?"
