Also means
inferior
Usage Note
Inferior is invariable in gender (el nivel inferior, la parte inferior) and has no separate feminine form. It functions as a comparative by nature, so you do not add más before it. The opposite is superior. In formal registers it can describe someone of lower rank or status.
Examples
"El precio es inferior al del año pasado."
Natural Translation
The price is lower than last year's.
