Creepers Meaning in English
word · lemma: creeper

Creepers are plants that grow along the ground or climb up surfaces using stems or tendrils. The word can also describe people or things that move very quietly and slowly, though this use is less common.
用法与细微差别
Most commonly refers to certain plants (like ivy or morning glory) in botany and gardening. In informal language, calling someone a "creeper" can mean they're behaving in a strange or unwanted way (beware, this is slang and can be negative). Not to be confused with the shoe style 'creepers' (fashion) or the popular Minecraft character.
