Full of curves, bends, or turns; characterized by smooth, winding movements or shapes.
From Latin flexuosus, derived from flexus (bent) and the root flectere (to bend). The -ous suffix transforms the concept into an adjective describing something possessing that quality.
The flexuous paths of climbing vines and the flexuous movements of dancers both use the same Latin root—language recognizes that bending appears everywhere in nature and art!
