Definitions and meanings of "Superfluidity"

What do we mean by superfluidity?

The frictionless flow that is characteristic of a fluid with zero viscosity, especially liquid helium at temperatures near absolute zero.

To be in possession of an excess (to the norm) quantity of fluids. This potentiality is applicable in a number of situations, such as in the case of a sportsfellow who brought more than the usual amount of water, someone who bleeds a lot, or someone who discharges rather a large load.
