inaccurate \inac"curate\, a.
   not accurate; not according to truth; inexact; not quite
   correct; incorrect; erroneous; as, in inaccurate man,
   narration, copy, judgment, calculation, etc.

   note: the term inaccurate is usually used when an assertion
         or result is near to the truth, but not exactly, or has
         some basis for belief; however, it is sometimes used as
         a gentle euphemism for wrong even if the error is
         flagrant.
