Read a random definition: perform

A quick definition of floodwater:

Floodwater: Water that overflows from its usual path, such as a river or stream, and spreads over land in an irregular way. This can happen during heavy rain or when a dam breaks. Floodwater can be dangerous and cause damage to homes and buildings.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Floodwater is water that escapes from a watercourse in large volumes and flows over adjoining property in no regular channel.

Example: When heavy rain falls, the water may overflow from a river or stream and flood nearby areas. This water is called floodwater.

Explanation: Floodwater is different from regular water because it is not contained within a watercourse or lake. Instead, it spills over onto land and can cause damage to homes, businesses, and infrastructure. This type of water is often unpredictable and can be dangerous to people and animals. It is important to take precautions during a flood to stay safe and protect property.
