Hi,

I have the following sentence:
"Giving her 10 hifives or touching her arm in the same place over and over is gonna get old fast."

What is the meaning of "hifive" in this context?

Thanks in advance

Hi-five is gesture of pleasure and camaraderie between two people in which one person holds up their palm up high and the other slaps it with their open palm.
