foams

Creates airy masses

Foams is the plural of foam and the third-person singular verb.

Foam is a mass of bubbles formed in or on liquid—beer foam, sea foam, the foam at a rabid dog's mouth.

As a material, foam is light and spongy, full of air pockets: foam rubber, foam padding, memory foam.

To foam is to produce bubbles: The waves foamed against the rocks.

To foam at the mouth is to be furiously angry.
