verb 
  1. (idiom) To donate (as second hand.)
When my older brother grows out of his clothes, he hands them down to me, which later in turn I to my little brother, if they're not ripped apart by then. We fall over a lot, this family of ours. And grow fast. Either way, my little brother ends up with tonnes of third-hand scruffy clothes. Maybe that's why he gets picked on so much.
