Definition
Having fins or equipped with fins; used to describe fish or objects with fin-like appendages.
Etymology
From fin (Old English 'fin' or Old Norse 'finna') plus the past participle suffix '-ed,' creating an adjective meaning 'possessing fins.' The root likely comes from Proto-Germanic sources related to the appendage itself.
Kelly Says
Fins evolved not just for swimming—they're also used for steering, balancing, and communication, which is why fish with different fin shapes are built for totally different lifestyles in the water!
