not reliable or careful about duties
Not careful about what you should do, or not thinking about how your actions can hurt other people.
استعمال کا انداز:
[someone] is irresponsible (with/about [something])
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes say *"He is irresponsible for the accident"* when they mean he is not to blame. In English, *irresponsible* almost always criticizes someone for how they act (they do not act like a responsible person). To say someone is not to blame, use *"He is not responsible for the accident"*, not *"irresponsible"*.
