perspired
Released body moisture
Perspired is the past tense of perspire, meaning to sweat.
Perspire is a slightly formal or polite alternative to sweat, often used when discussing bodily functions in delicate contexts: She perspired lightly during the interview.
The word carries less earthiness than sweat—you might say an athlete sweats but a nervous debutante perspires.
