To move is to shift your position or change where you are. It can be a little spooky to hear a sleepwalker move around a dark house at night.
You can move from one room to another, or move from Oregon to New Hampshire, changing the place where you live. Dancers move their bodies as they move around on a stage, and chess players move pieces strategically on the board.
