shoestring
When used as an adjective, this term evokes a sense of precariousness and extreme frugality. It suggests a situation where the margin for error is nonexistent because the financial backing is barely sufficient to cover the most basic requirements. This usage is common in entrepreneurial or artistic contexts where passion outweighs capital.
As a noun, the word refers to the physical lace of a shoe. While it is a standard countable noun, it is rarely used in modern conversation, often being replaced by the more general term laces.
