struts
Parades with confidence
Struts are structural supports designed to resist compression—the beams and bars that keep things from collapsing inward.
In vehicles, struts are shock-absorbing components in the suspension system.
To strut is to walk with exaggerated pride or self-importance, chest out, shoulders back: He strutted around like he owned the place.
The phrase strut your stuff means to display your abilities or assets confidently.
