Spelling error? Did you leave the (s) out of inane?
Nope.

from merriam-webster online:
Main Entry: 1 inane
Pronunciation: i-'nAn
Function: adjective
Inflected Form(s): inan·er; -est
Etymology: Latin inanis
1 : EMPTY, INSUBSTANTIAL
2 : lacking significance, meaning, or point : SILLY
synonym see INSIPID
- inane·ly adverb
- inane·ness /-'nAn-n&s/ noun

Oh my. Thanks for the help, but I was already well aware of the meaning of "inane". That was a weak attempt at humor on my part. I thought that that would be obvious. I was wrong. Next time I will add a smilie when I make a posts like that. That might help.
