perforated

/ˈpɝfɝˌeɪtɪd/ adj B2

having small holes

Word Origin Perforated is literally 'bored through' — from Latin per 'through' and forare 'to pierce.' You can almost see the holes being punched. The same root forare is rare in English, but it's there in foramen (an opening in bone) and the PIE *bhor- also gives us bore. So a perforated edge is one that's been pierced all the way through.
