FLIRT
What flirt means
To behave amorously or playfully toward someone in a way that suggests romantic or sexual interest without serious intention.
Where the word comes from
Flirt likely comes from Old French "fleureter," meaning to touch lightly or flutter, derived from "fleur" (flower). The verb may have originally referred to quick, playful movements like a flower swaying in the breeze. It entered English in the 16th century with the sense of moving restlessly or coquettishly, later developing its modern meaning of playful romantic behavior.
