/briːm/, U.S.

/brim/

Forms: Also 1600s breem.

Etymology: Of uncertain origin: known only since 1600. It has been conjecturally referred to Dutch brem ‘broom, furze’, and to English broom , as a derivative verb, or a dialect variant: but evidence is lacking. Conjectures identifying the word with bren , burn v.¹, are unsupported except by the analogy of German ein Schiff brennen, French chauffer le vaisseau, donner le feu.

transitive. To clear (a ship's bottom) of shells, seaweed, ooze, etc., by singeing it with burning reeds, furze, or faggots, thus softening the pitch so that the rubbish adhering may be swept off. Cf. broom v.
