FURLED Meaning and Definition

1. Furled is an adjective used to describe something that has been rolled or wrapped up tightly. It refers to the action of folding or coiling an object, typically a cloth, flag, sail, or piece of fabric, in an organized and compact manner. When something is furled, it means that it has been carefully and neatly secured by rolling or folding it upon itself.

   The word "furled" often implies an intentional action to gather or reduce the size of an object. It is commonly used when referring to sails on a boat: when the wind is calm or when taking down the sails, they are furled by rolling them up tightly to reduce their full surface area, making them easier to manage and store. Similarly, flags can be furled to take up less space and keep them from unraveling.

   In a broader context, "furled" can also describe the action of tightly folding or coiling any type of fabric or material for storage or transportation purposes. For example, a furled umbrella is one that has been neatly folded down and secured when it is not in use.

   Overall, the term "furled" emphasizes the orderly and deliberate action of rolling, folding, or wrapping a material to make it more compact or manageable.
