In literature, the word “moved” functions with remarkable versatility, capturing both the physical and the emotional. Authors use it to indicate literal motion—whether it’s a body part acting in an unexpected way (“His lips moved horribly” [1]), a mechanical object in operation (“The minute hand moved on” [2]), or characters relocating from one place to another (“He moved to London in 1910” [3]). At the same time, “moved” regularly conveys a stirring of emotion; characters are often described as being emotionally affected, such as being “moved to tears” by poignant words ([4]) or profoundly affected by sublime beauty ([5], [6]). This dual capacity, bridging tangible movement and internal transformation, allows writers to enrich their narratives by linking the physical act of moving with the shifting of the heart and mind.
