What is a volcano called that has not erupted recently?

A volcano that has not erupted recently is referred to as a "dormant" volcano. Dormant volcanoes have the potential to erupt again in the future, but they have not shown any activity for a significant period of time. In contrast, an "extinct" volcano is one that is unlikely to erupt again.
