A tool used to pare things.
A parer has two distinct lives depending on where you are. In standard English, it's a small kitchen tool used for peeling or trimming fruit and vegetables — a paring knife or similar implement. In Irish English, however, a parer is simply a pencil sharpener — the handheld kind you use to put a point on a pencil. The Irish usage is charming and practical: 'pare' meaning to shave or trim carries over naturally. Both meanings share the same cutting-down logic, just applied to very different objects.

To trim the hoof of a horse.
Pare means: To trim the hoof of a horse.. There is no real cause for parental concern; it is descriptive vocabulary rather than risky behaviour. If your teen uses it, context will usually make the intent clear. A short, curious question about where they heard it is usually all that is needed to know whether to follow up. For most families this word will pass by without incident; it is more a vocabulary curiosity than a parenting concern.
pare means: To trim the hoof of a horse.. Register: neutral, standard English. A common learner mistake is using the word in a register it does not fit, or assuming a single global meaning; native speakers immediately notice when slang appears in formal contexts, so always check the surrounding register before producing it yourself. A formal-English equivalent (a synonym or descriptive phrase) is usually safer in writing. When in doubt, paraphrase rather than reuse the slang form.
