Fluxible

/ˈflʌksəbəl/ adjective

Definition

Capable of flowing, melting, or becoming fluid; able to be put into a state of flux or change.

Etymology

From Latin 'fluxus' (flowing) + suffix '-ible' (capable of being). An alternative to the more common 'flexible,' emphasizing flow and melting rather than bending.

Kelly Says

While 'flexible' means bending without breaking, 'fluxible' means actually melting or changing form—it's the difference between bending a stick and turning it into wax.
