Origin
The word "trim" is derived from the Old English verb "trymian," which originally meant "to make firm or strengthen." It was used in a variety of contexts, including carpentry, shipbuilding, and warfare.
Over time, the meaning of "trim" evolved to include the idea of making something neat or tidy in appearance. This sense of the word was influenced by the French word "trimer," which means "to arrange or put in order."
The noun "trim" was first used in the 14th century to refer to a neat and tidy appearance. It was later used to refer to a piece of decoration or embellishment, and to a state of good order or adjustment.
