1: movement of a solvent (such as water) through a semipermeablemembrane (as of a living cell) into a solution of higher soluteconcentration that tends to equalize the concentrations of solute on the two sides of the membrane
2: a process of absorption or diffusion (see diffusion 3a) suggestive of the flow of osmoticaction; especially : a usually effortless often unconscious assimilation (see assimilation 4)learned a number of languages by osmosis —Roger Kimball

Osmosis means when molecules travel from a place of higher concentration to lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.
