Dažna klaida:
Learners often confuse "rim" with "brim" and "edge". Use "rim" for the physical top edge of a round object, especially cups and glasses. "Brim" often suggests the top edge when something is full (e.g. "filled to the brim"), and "edge" is more general. Also note the common pattern "the rim of the glass", not "the glass's rim" in most neutral styles.
Reikšmė
outer edge of a round object

|chip on the rim
|cup rim
|around the rim
|thin rim
Sinonimai
edge (More general; can be any border, not only the circular top of a container.)

lip (Very close in meaning, but often used when something touches the edge gently, as in 'at the lip of the cup'.)

center (Refers to the middle area, the opposite of the outer edge or rim.)

Learners may confuse "rim" with "hoop" or "basket". In basketball, "rim" is specifically the metal ring, while "basket" can mean the whole goal or the act of scoring. Also, we say "hit the rim" or "off the rim", not "hit on the rim".
Reikšmė
