To dribble or drool over something; to cover with dribbles or small streams of liquid.
From 'be-' (intensive) + 'dribble' (small stream or to drool). 'Dribble' comes from Dutch 'dribbelen,' related to 'drip,' possibly imitative in origin.
Medieval writers used 'bedribble' to describe messiness—a baby 'bedribbled' with food, a drunk 'bedribbled' with wine—it's actually quite a vivid and funny word for messiness!
