SLOBBER Meaning and
Definition
-
Slobber is a verb that means the act of emitting excessive saliva from the mouth, often accompanied by dribbling or drooling. It is typically an involuntary action that occurs during sleep or in response to certain stimuli, such as the presence of food or anticipation of eating. Slobbering can also occur as a result of certain medical conditions that affect saliva production or control.
The term "slobber" can also be used as a noun to refer to the excessive saliva itself or the visible traces of saliva left on surfaces due to excessive drooling. This may include wet patches or streaks on clothing, bedsheets, or other objects that the individual has come into contact with.
The verb form of slobber can be used to describe the actions of both humans and animals. In animals, slobbering can be particularly common in certain breeds with loose or floppy lips, such as dogs with jowls or horses with droopy lips. It is also common in young children who have not yet developed full control over their saliva production and swallowing reflexes.
Overall, slobbering is a natural physiological response that can occur due to various reasons, and while it is not usually a cause for concern, excessive or persistent slobbering may warrant medical attention to identify and address any underlying conditions that may be contributing to the issue.
