ribbonlike
Shaped like streamers
Ribbonlike describes something long, narrow, and flat—resembling a ribbon in shape.
The word typically applies to things that flow or extend in thin strips: ribbonlike seaweed, a ribbonlike road winding through the valley, ribbonlike clouds stretched across the horizon.
Also spelled ribbon-like.
