How Do You Spell PLUMED?

Pronunciation: [plˈuːmd] (IPA)

The word "plumed" is spelled with five letters and three sounds. The initial sound, /p/, is produced by pressing the lips together and releasing it with a burst of air. The second sound, /l/, is made by placing the tip of the tongue behind the upper teeth and producing a voiced lateral sound. The final sound, /d/, is similar to the initial sound but voiced. These three sounds combine to create the meaning of "plumed," which refers to having feathers or plumes, as in a plumed hat.

PLUMED Meaning and Definition

1. Plumed is an adjective that describes something as adorned or characterized by a plume or feathers. A plume refers to a long, soft, and fluffy or feathery appendage, particularly found on birds. However, the term "plumed" can also be metaphorically applied to objects or individuals that resemble or evoke the image of a plume.

   In the context of birds, plumed typically refers to those species that possess or exhibit long, ornamental feathers. These feathers are often found on the head, neck, or tail regions and are known for their vibrant colors and unique patterns. Birds with plumed feathers often use them for display during courtship rituals or to attract mates. Examples of plumed birds include peacocks with their magnificent tails and cockatoos with their characteristic head crest.

   Beyond the realm of avian fauna, "plumed" can be used to describe other objects possessing long, soft and flowing features resembling the appearance of feathers. For instance, one may refer to a plumed hat, where the accessory is adorned with decorative feathers or feather-like embellishments. Similarly, a dancer wearing a plumed costume implies the presence of feathers or feather-like elements incorporated into the outfit.

   In a figurative sense, "plumed" can describe an individual who carries themselves with an air of dignity or pride. It may suggest a person's regal appearance, confident demeanor, or noble qualities. However, this usage is less common than the literal reference to feathers or feather-like appendages.

2. Adjusted or arranged, as feathers; adorned with feathers; stripped of feathers.
