Question

meander A little-used trail meanders through the mountains, crossed by cowpaths onto which hikers often stray and get lost. miˈændər

Accepted Answer

(1) To follow a winding course. (2) To wander slowly without a specific purpose or direction. Now and then, geography contributes an ordinary word to the language. The Greek word maiandros came from the Maiandros River (now the Menderes River) in western Turkey, which rises in the mountains and flows 240 miles into the Aegean Sea. Meandering is a natural tendency especially in slow-moving rivers on flat ground with fine-grained sand, and the Maiandros was well known for its many windings and wanderings. Roads and trails, like rivers, can be said to meander, but so can relaxed music, lazy writing, and idle thoughts
