MADID Meaning and Definition

  1. Madid is an adjective derived from the Latin word "madidus," meaning wet or soaked. It is used to describe something that is thoroughly drenched or saturated with liquid, typically in the context of describing a state of being excessively wet or moisture-laden.

    When applied to objects or surfaces, madid signifies that they are thoroughly soaked, often to the point of dripping or being visibly wet. This could be due to water, rain, or any other liquid that has thoroughly permeated an item or surface. For instance, a madid sponge would be completely saturated with water, unable to absorb more. Similarly, a madid towel or madid clothes indicate that these items have absorbed a considerable amount of moisture, perhaps due to being left outside during a storm or soaked in water deliberately.

    In a broader sense, madid can also describe a person or animal who is heavily perspiring or sweating profusely. When someone is madid in this context, it suggests that they are experiencing a significant amount of sweat or moisture on their body due to exertion, extreme heat, or other factors.

    Overall, madid is a versatile adjective that encapsulates the idea of being thoroughly wet, soaked, or moisture-laden, whether in reference to objects, surfaces, or the sweating of living organisms.
