Mobile


Definition:

  • (a.) Capable of being moved; not fixed in place or condition; movable.
  • (a.) Characterized by an extreme degree of fluidity; moving or flowing with great freedom; as, benzine and mercury are mobile liquids; -- opposed to viscous, viscoidal, or oily.

  • (a.) Changing in appearance and expression under the influence of the mind; as, mobile features.
  • (a.) Capable of being moved, aroused, or excited; capable of spontaneous movement.
  • (a.) The mob; the populace.
