The process of moving or swinging by using the arms, similar to how some primates move through trees.
From Latin 'brachium' (arm) + English gerund suffix '-ing', following the pattern of 'brachiate.' The term emerged in 19th-century zoology to describe arm-based locomotion.
Brachering is how sloths, gibbons, and even young children on monkey bars move—it's one of nature's most energy-efficient ways to travel through space without your feet touching the ground.
