pumps
Low-cut formal footwear
Pumps are devices that move fluids by mechanical action—water pumps, fuel pumps, air pumps.
The verb means to operate such a device or move something similarly: pump water from a well, pump iron at the gym, pump the brakes.
To pump someone is to question them persistently for information.
Pumps are also women's dress shoes with closed toes and low-cut tops, typically with heels.
