Definition fluff

Etymology

From earlier floow (�woolly substance, down, nap, lint�), also spelt flough, flue, and flew, of uncertain origin (cf. Old English fl?h (�that which is flown off, fragment, piece�)). Possibly representing a blend of flue +‎ puff. Flue is perhaps a borrowing of West Flemish vluwe (compare Middle Dutch vloe), or perhaps onomatopoeic; compare dialectal English floose, flooze, fleeze (�particles of wool or cotton; fluff; loose threads or fibres�), Danish fnug (�down, fluff�), Swedish fnugg (�speck, flake�). Alternatively, West Flemish vluwe may derive from French velu (�hairy, furry�), ultimately from Latin villus ("shaggy hair, tuft of hair"). For words of similar sound and meaning in other languages, compare Japanese ???? (fuwafuwa, �lightly, softly�), Hungarian puha (�soft, fluffy�), Polish puchaty (�soft, fluffy�).
