Answer
Child class provides new implementation for a parent class method.
public virtual void Speak() { }
public override void Speak() { }
Quick Answer
When a child class provides its own version of a parent class method, that's overriding. The parent marks it virtual, the child uses override. At runtime, even holding a base class reference, the child's version gets called — that's the whole point.
