Drip
Visual Imagery
Imagine a leaky tap as you say 'drip' to picture small, successive drops.
Each drip of water from the ceiling marked the seconds.
Sounds of Drip
The word 'drip' can also convey the sound of falling liquid drops.
The steady drip-drip-drip kept me up all night.
Minimal Quantity
'Drip' suggests a very small quantity of liquid, less than a pour or splash.
A single drip of syrup added just enough sweetness.
