    verbcolloquial
    Present participle and gerund of super.

    Experienced keepers start supering as soon as the main nectar flow begins.

    She spent the weekend supering every colony in the apiary.

    Note

    Two clipped verbs share this spelling. In beekeeping, super is short for superhive, so supering means giving a colony an extra box on top. Elsewhere it is short for superimpose: laying one image or layer over another. Both clippings are colloquial. Only the verb takes -ing. The adjective (a super result) and the adverb (super keen) never do.
