Chinese: 弱棋 ruo2 qi2)
Japanese: 弱い石 (yowai ishi)
Korean:

A group without adequate eye shape. Deprived of a base, these groups must run to the center to live. Such groups may be attacked (and defended, unless already dead).

The term floating could be used for a weak group without a base on the edge.

See also: One weak group between two, do not create two weak groups.
