Extracts with precision
Tweezes is the verb form of tweeze—to pluck or pull out with tweezers: She tweezes her eyebrows every morning.
The word is a back-formation from tweezers, treating that plural-looking noun as if it had a singular verb form.
Less common than "pluck," but standard in contexts involving hair removal or handling small objects.
