Etymology
Flirting likely comes from an old idea of a quick, light movement, like a small 'flick' or 'flip', and the base word flirt once suggested a sudden little motion. A helpful way to remember it is that flirting is like a playful 'flick' of attention—brief, teasing signs that show romantic interest.
