What does strim mean?

trims

It is what one does with a strimmer, strim . . . .

"Strimmer" is correctly a tradename, but it has slid into British English use as a genericized trademark and spawned a back-formed verb "to strim" = "to use a string trimmer on".

prone (from prune)

or

troup (from trump)

JxP!!

"STRIM" to strim, to use a strimmer, also known as a "whipper snipper" in Aus. But in the UK a strimmer is used to go round the border of the garden where one "strims" the bits you can't get at with lawn mower.

I google'd strim and couldn't find anything, can you provide any links for strim.

You are correct, my bad, I'll get my coat. :o

No need to get your coat, I am merely trying to establish the definition of words that are unfamiliar to me. :D

Also known as a weed whacker to the Boston Tea Party crowd.

There's a link to and a quote from Wikipedia in my reply to the initial challenge, not the most reliable or definitive of resources but it at least shows I'm not the only one that uses strim as a verb.

JxP :D
