- lproven 6y agoEr, no. In English, it does not mean anything at all. "Prime" is the analagous English word, I would think, and it is not a superlative. One would not say "that's prime" of something good, impressive, whatever. "Prime" means: ready; in the thing's initial state; available for immediate use. It also has a meaning in maths, but that's not really relevant.
