Burning brightly or glowing with intense heat and light.
From Latin flammans, present participle of flammare (to flame), derived from flamma (flame). The -ant suffix indicates a state or condition of active burning.
This word appears in medieval heraldry and old poetry to describe things that literally seem to be on fire—but what's wild is that it was often used to describe emotions like passion or rage, as if human feelings could actually combust like real flames.
