The word "spiralled" is the past tense form of the verb "spiral", which means to move or twist around in a spiral shape.

SPIRALLED Meaning and Definition

1. Spiralled is the past tense and past participle form of the verb "spiral." The term "spiral" can be defined as a verb or a noun. As a verb, spiral refers to the action of moving or progressing in a spiral shape or pattern. It signifies a curving or winding motion that gradually moves towards or away from a central point. When something is said to have spiralled, it means that it has followed a spiral path or course.

   In a figurative sense, the verb spiralled can describe a situation or a process that has deteriorated, escalated, or increased rapidly and uncontrollably. When something spirals, it suggests an unstoppable downwards or upwards trend, often resulting in a chain reaction of further developments, often negative in nature. This can occur in various contexts, such as prices spiralling out of control, a situation spiralling into chaos, or emotions spiralling downwards into despair.

   Moreover, the term can also be used as a noun to represent the shape or pattern of a spiral. It signifies a curve that continuously loops or revolves around a central axis or point, creating a visually appealing form often observed in nature or certain architectural designs.

   Therefore, the past form "spiralled" exemplifies the action of moving, progressing, or evolving in a spiral shape or pattern, or the depiction of a situation or process that has rapidly and uncontrollably deteriorated or escalated.
