Inexperienced in the ways of the world (5)

I believe the answer is:

naive

(Other definitions for naive that I've seen before include "Inexperienced or gullible" , "Rather too simple and gullible" , "Lacking judgment" , "Inexperienced, innocent" , "Ingenous, easy to gull" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
