What does Blowball really mean?

Hey there! So, "blowball" is actually another word for a dandelion. You know, those little yellow flowers that turn into those fluffy white balls that you blow on and make a wish? That's a blowball! Some people call them that because when you blow on them, the little seeds scatter in the wind like tiny little balls. It's pretty cool, right?

So, the word "blowball" can also be used to talk about something that's really lightweight or fluffy, like a dandelion seed. You might hear someone say that a certain fabric or material feels like a blowball because it's so light and airy. It's like comparing something to the soft, delicate nature of a dandelion seed.

Anyway, I hope that helps clear things up! Let me know if you have any other questions about words or anything else.
