Definition

Related to or resembling Albert Einstein, his scientific theories, his approach to physics, or his distinctive style and character.

Kelly Says

The word 'Einsteinian' became shorthand for 'brilliant but eccentric'—his wild hair, violin-playing, and revolutionary physics ideas made him a cultural icon, so people started using his name as an adjective for groundbreaking genius!
