Homonym: fuzz (Blur)
Fuzz refers to a soft, fluffy texture or covering, often found on various surfaces. It can be seen on items like cotton balls, fuzzy blankets, or even the skin of certain fruits like peaches. Fuzz is typically made up of tiny fibers or hairs that create a gentle, tactile sensation.
In a different context, "fuzz" can also refer to a type of visual distortion or noise in images, particularly in photography or video. This can occur due to low light conditions or poor focus, resulting in a grainy appearance. Understanding fuzz in both contexts helps appreciate its diverse meanings.
