"Prim and proper" có từ prim là nghiêm nghị, đứng đắn -> cụm từ này chỉ người luôn luôn hành xử đúng mực và không bao giờ phá bỏ quy tắc lịch sự.

Ví dụ
She said before going to the delivery room; she was running her personal errands (việc lặt vặt) so that everything is prim and proper. She said that she had a desperate craving (khao khát) for McGriddle from McDonald’s. She also remembers asking Jonathan to take her for a bikini wax:” Do you mind driving me to get a Bikini Wax?”

Expect prim and proper black leather (da) boots or derbies for the feet, along with three-quarter length wool coats. Business stripes are back in fashion, but this time given a casual feel, and – unusually – some new fabrics (vật liệu) also make their winter debut, including stonewashed denim (vải bò).

Fast forward to a TV interview in 1967 and she’s a prim and proper young lady with rounder vowels (nguyên âm) and a little less spirit, packaged for entertainment shows by BBC legend Bill Cotton. Marie has disappeared.
