n.

1. A waterfall or a series of small waterfalls over steep rocks.
2. Something, such as lace, thought to resemble a waterfall or series of small waterfalls, especially an arrangement or fall of material.
3. A succession of stages, processes, operations, or units.
4. Electronics. A series of components or networks, the output of each of which serves as the input for the next.
5. A chemical or physiological process that occurs in successive stages, each of which is dependent on the preceding one, and often producing a cumulative effect: an enzymatic cascade.

intr. & tr.v., -cad·ed, -cad·ing, -cades.

To fall or cause to fall in or as if in a cascade.

[French, from Italian cascata, from cascare, to fall, from Vulgar Latin *casicāre, from Latin cadere.]

A connected series of devices or images. It often implies that the second and subsequent device takes over after the previous one is used up. For example, cascading tapes in a dual-tape backup system means the second tape is written after the first one is full. In a PC, a second IRQ chip is cascaded to the first, doubling the number of interrupts.

Definition: fall
Antonyms: dribble, trickle

1. A huge volume of spurious error-message output produced by a compiler with poor error recovery. Too frequently, one trivial syntax error (such as a missing ‘)’ or ‘}’) throws the parser out of synch so that much of the remaining program text is interpreted as garbaged or ill-formed.

2. A chain of Usenet followups, each adding some trivial variation or riposte to the text of the previous one, all of which is reproduced in the new message; an include war in which the object is to create a sort of communal graffito.

---

A sequence of small waterfalls, such as that occurring on the White Nile below Lake Victoria, Uganda.

A series of steps or stages (as of a physiological process) which, once initiated, continues to the final step by virtue of each step being triggered by the preceding one, sometimes with cumulative effect. For example, the coagulation cascade.

IN BRIEF: A small shower of something such as water, sparks, or jewels.

As I walked in the meadow, I heard the sound of a small cascade in the creek.
