Having the quality of changing color or character like a chameleon; quick to adapt appearance or behavior to circumstances.
From 'chameleon' (from Greek 'chamaileon': 'chamai' ground + 'leon' lion) with English adjectival suffix '-ic'. Describes the chameleon's most famous trait applied metaphorically.
Chameleons don't change color for camouflage as much as for mood and temperature—when we call someone chameleonic, we're actually being scientifically wrong in a poetic way.
