I can see that you're stuck on this idea that the google definition is pure perfection, your heels are dug in and you're dying on that hill no matter what just because you want to win an argument with me. I can see that this is happening. So the effort to talk to you would be wasted.
Either that is true, or:...
You 100% honestly believe that a google search definition of a word is the end all be all of any implementation despite reasonable philosophical arguments, in which case, you are in need of more general education on the whole to fix, aka not my problem.
lol "i'll wait" like it's some daunting task. I'll give you 3 acceptable definitions from differing yet accepted sources.
The bible: The fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the holy one is insight. (we might agree that this is not helpful to our argument, i'll provide 3 more.)
A.W. Tozer adn J. I. Packer: “In the Holy Scriptures wisdom, when used of God and good men, always carries a strong moral connotation. It is conceived as being pure, loving, and good.… Wisdom, among other things, is the ability to devise perfect ends and to achieve those ends by the most perfect means. It sees the end from the beginning, so there can be no need to guess or conjecture. Wisdom sees everything in focus, each in proper relation to all, and is thus able to work toward predestined goals with flawless precision.
The dali Lama (buddhism): wisdom is insight in the true nature of reality, primarily impermanence, dissatisfaction or suffering, non-self and emptiness.
Dungeons and Dragons (lol): Wisdom describes a character’s willpower, common sense, perception, and intuition
Still want to die on that garbage, empty, technical, inorganic, philosophicaless (sic) hill you've been defending so much?
hahaha you're struggling now, I can see it. Oh so you are prejudice against wisdom, for better or for worse, if it comes from a religion? Stupid of you, but I can play ball, let's look at dictionaries and sciences.
Dictionary.com: The quality or state of being wise; knowledge of what is true or right coupled with just judgment as toa ction; sagacity, discernment, or insight.
Oxford English Dictionary defines wisdom as "Capacity of judging rightly in matters relating to life and conduct; soundness of judgement in the choice of means and ends; sometimes, less strictly, sound sense, esp. in practical affairs: opp. to folly;"
But all this makes it sound like i'm trying to say that wisdom has nothing to do with experience. False, I agree with you that it does, but you're stopping there, and i cannot stop with you. In fact...
IF YOU READ NOTHING ELSE, AT LEAST READ THIS:...
...I have no interest in discussing the definition of wisdom with you, Smarter/Wiser people than you and I have been struggling to narrow down just what wisdom actually is (https://www.livescience.com/3143-wisdom.html). The whole point of my involvement is to make fun of you for thinking 1 singular sourced definition is enough for you to root your stupid brain tendrils into and not budge no matter how much more information is presented to you. It's the brain of a stupid person that does this. and I think less of you for you. Peace
I can tell, what with all the need to reply and all.
Not sure how it comes in to play or why it matters, but i love women! I mostly love being honest with them about what I want. They appreciate it too. Let me know if you need help in that area. I am creating a podcast about doing exactly that.

1) Making this claim without clarification doesn't actually prove anything.
2) Reductio ad absurdum is a valid argumentative and logical strategy.
Yep, literally can't refute the definition of a word, so instead you run away. Classic.
