Impractical means ‘not sensible or realistic ’, and applies either to things that are not designed to be useful in everyday situations or to an outlook that does not take the realities of life into account (Paul was impractical and dreamy | you're wearing rather impractical clothes ). Impracticable, on the other hand, describes an idea or plan that is impossible to put into action (the small population made it impracticable to provide separate schools for boys and girls ). An impractical dreamer might well be preoccupied with impracticable projects. These notes clear up confusion between similar-looking pairs.
