curgerea

Curgerea is a Romanian noun derived from the verb curge, meaning to flow. It denotes the action or state of liquids moving from a source to a destination, driven by gravity, pressure, or differences in potential. In everyday speech it can describe natural phenomena such as the curgerea apei in rivers and streams, as well as engineered systems like pipes and drainage networks. In scientific contexts, curgerea is used to discuss flow rates, continuity, and the behavior of fluids in hydrology, hydraulics, and fluid dynamics.

In medicine and biology, curgerea describes discharge or drainage from a body part or wound. Examples include nasal discharge or wound drainage; the term emphasizes movement or expulsion of fluids rather than production, and is often qualified by adjectives indicating the type or direction and rate. The concept is also used metaphorically to refer to the passage of time, as in curgerea timpului. The word is common in Romanian and appears in technical, educational, and literary contexts as a neutral descriptor of fluid movement.
