Fleeting is an adjective of two genders in the Portuguese language originating from the Latin term fugaxand that describes something fast what run away or run fast. In the figurative sense it means something transitional or ephemeral.

Fleeting is something that is fleeting, doesn't last long and that's why it is related to the verbs to escape and flee. As far as etymology is concerned, this word gave rise to the term "fugitive".
