Permeate

Fun Fact

Permeation is a fundamental concept in science, from how water seeps through soil to how ideas spread through culture. The term is often used metaphorically—love can permeate a story, tension can permeate a room, and innovation can permeate an industry. Interestingly, in physics and chemistry, permeability describes how easily substances (like gases or liquids) move through materials, which is why certain fabrics “breathe” better than others!
