👉 The Flocculated Word: FLOCCULATION!
Imagine a situation where you are sitting at a table in a restaurant and suddenly everything goes haywire. You notice a small hole forming in the middle of the floor - like when your friend accidentally spills their drink on themselves. This tiny opening in the floor causes all your dishes to start floating up out of the table, making it look like a flocculation!
Now imagine you're at the same restaurant and decide to have an escape room challenge where you need to solve puzzles using a small amount of water to make the walls not flow. You find yourself trapped between two rows of shelves that are dripping with liquid water - just like when you accidentally spill your drink on the floor and now all your food is soaking wet!
Lastly, imagine you're at work, trying to type something quick without any issues. But then suddenly you notice a small hole in the corner where your keyboard sits - it's flocculated! This tiny hole causes your keys to be stuck right under your typing area, making it look like you've been caught off guard and now have no idea how to continue.
Now that you understand what 'flocculation' is all about, can you explain why we sometimes use this term in situations where something isn't working properly? Because it's not a joke!
