EN: to pull the trigger; to strum lightly; to nudge
The action your finger does right before you send that risky 'u up?' text. Or what you do to a guitar string to see if it's in tune. It can be a gentle nudge to get your friend's attention, or the much more serious act of pulling a trigger. It's all about that quick, decisive finger movement.
ROOT MEANING: to poke; to nudge with a fingertip
Has multiple contexts: firearms (pulling a trigger), musical instruments (plucking a string), and getting someone's attention (nudging/poking).
