Nimble是英語形容詞，音標為英[ˈnɪmb(ə)l]/美[ˈnɪmb(ə)l]，核心含義為“（行動）靈活的”和“（頭腦）聰敏的”，其比較級與最高級形式包含nimbler/more nimble與nimblest/most nimble。
該詞兼具描述肢體敏捷與思維敏銳的雙重屬性，常見於"nimble fingers"（靈巧手指）、"nimble mind"（機敏頭腦）等短語，並延伸至體育術語中的靈活步法（nimble footwork）。慣用表達"as nimble as a squirrel"通過比喻強化動作輕快特性，數字視覺領域"Nimble Squiggles"等專業術語則體現其跨領域套用。
該詞源自14世紀古英語詞根nemel，原義為“快速捕捉”，在語義演變中始終保留“迅速反應”的核心特徵，通過文學著作與日常表達延續使用至今。
