to vegetate = to be very lazy and inactive.
It means "as active as a vegetable", hence the name.
This verb also exists in French (végéter)
ex:
j'ai passé mon week-end à végéter devant la télévision (French)
= I spent my week-end vegetating in front of the TV set (English).

It means to be passive or inactive.
As a plant grows (vegetates), it is not moving or physically active. It just "sits there." :)
