📖 Definitions
Noun In the International System of Units, the derived unit of electrical potential and electromotive force (voltage); the potential difference across a conductor when a current of one ampere uses one watt of power. Symbol: V
Noun (Can we verify this sense?) A bright yellow-green colour often used in Nike products. volt:
Noun A circular movement in which the horse goes round in a small circle.
Noun A sudden movement to avoid a thrust; a parry.
