Phrase brim
Text The word "brim," in this podcast, means the part of a hat that sticks out beyond the head to protect one's face, neck, and hair from sunshine and/or rain: "Please take off your hat for the photo because the brim is covering your eyes." A "brim" is also the top edge of a glass or a container: "She filled the glass to the brim with milk, so there was no way to move it without spilling it." Or, "The box is filled to the brim with crayons and small toys." The phrase "to brim with tears" means to have one's eyes fill with tears and to begin to cry: "Her eyes brimmed with tears when she heard the bad news." Finally, the phrase "to brim over with (something)" means to have a lot of some feeling or emotion: "They were brimming over with happiness when they finally saw each other again."
