knock or run into someone or something with a jolt

I almost bumped into him

she ran to the desk, bumping against an armchair

she bumped the girl with her hip

move or travel with a succession of jolting movements

the car bumped along the rutted track

(of an airline) refuse (a passenger) a reserved place on a flight as a consequence of deliberate overbooking

if you check in on time and are bumped, you will be entitled to a full refund

(in an online forum) post on (an inactive thread) in order to move it to the top of the list of active threads
