Soft, light fibers or down that gather loosely, such as lint from fabric or the downy covering of a young bird.

Because it has almost no weight or substance, the word also describes anything trivial or lacking in real content, such as fluff in a speech or a magazine article. The related verb means to shake or brush something so that it looks fuller and softer.
