low speed
Not moving fast
Low speed describes motion or operation that is slow relative to what's typical or possible.
A vehicle at low speed is moving slowly: Drive at low speed through the parking lot.
Equipment with low speed settings operates with reduced rotation or output: Use low speed for mixing thick batter.
The phrase often appears in technical contexts—gears, fans, processors—where speed is adjustable.
