Số nhiều: tuftsQuá khứ: tuftedPhân từ 2: tuftedV-ing: tufting

This word evokes a specific visual image of organic growth or fabrication where multiple strands radiate from a single point of origin. It suggests a compact, bristly, or fuzzy texture that is distinct from a smooth surface or a loose pile. In a commercial or industrial sense, the term is heavily associated with textile manufacturing, specifically the process of punching yarn into a backing. This creates a structural contrast between the soft, protruding fibers and the rigid base they are anchored to.

Used to describe any individual cluster of fibers, such as a single tuft of fur on an animal's ear or one tuft of wool in a fabric.
