O verbo "Preen" em inglês é utilizado para descrever o ato de um pássaro arrumar e alisar suas penas com o bico. Este comportamento é comum entre aves e serve tanto para a manutenção das penas quanto para a remoção de parasitas. Além disso, "preen" pode ser usado de forma figurativa para se referir a alguém que se arruma ou se embeleza de maneira meticulosa, muitas vezes com um toque de vaidade. Este verbo, portanto, pode ser empregado tanto em contextos literais, relacionados ao comportamento animal, como em contextos mais figurativos, relacionados a comportamentos humanos.
