inpouring

Flooding into something

Inpouring describes something flowing or rushing inward in large quantities.

As a noun, an inpouring is a massive influx: an inpouring of refugees, an inpouring of capital.

As an adjective, it modifies what's streaming in: the inpouring tide, inpouring light through the windows.

The word emphasizes volume and direction—things pouring in rather than trickling.
