foam
Airy trapped bubbles
Foam is a mass of small bubbles formed on or in liquid—the froth on ocean waves, the head on beer, the lather from soap.
Foam also names lightweight materials with a bubbly structure: foam rubber, foam insulation, styrofoam.
To foam is to produce bubbles: The rabid dog foamed at the mouth.
To foam at the mouth figuratively means to rage uncontrollably.
