Term appearing in A. Bester's novel 'The Stars My Destination', indicating the act of teleportation of oneself by mere use of willpower.

Also as verb:

Jaunting is the ability to teleport oneself, unaided, by a simple expression of will. The only requirements are that you know where you are and can visualize where you are going.

"The orderly disappeared as he jaunted to a supply cabin, and reappeared alongside the tank five seconds later."

Jaunt - slang

A rapid, brief sprint that requires a great deal of physical exertion. Common colloquial use follows the word jaunt with an "it".

Alternatively, jaunt can refer to a short trek of some kind. This definition doesn't necessarily imply any sort of genuine physical effort other than maybe a brisque walk.

1) It's the cops, jaunt it!

1) I really had to jaunt it to catch my bus this morning.

2) Mike has just returned from his weekly jaunt to the park.

2) Julie was casually jaunting to school.
