    How to use "Viscous" in context?

    The viscous property refers to a liquid's resistance to flowing. A liquid with a high viscosity will be more difficult to pour and will take longer to reach a desired consistency. Viscosity is measured in terms of the fluid's shear stress, which is the stress per unit area that a fluid experiences when sheared across its liquid-vapor interface.
