What does BECLOG mean in Scrabble?
verb
rare
To block or hinder something by filling it up with sticky or heavy matter, or to burden it with clogs.
Beclog is a rare verb built by adding the old intensifying prefix be- to clog, giving the sense of loading something so thoroughly that it can no longer move or flow. Writers have used it of drains choked with mud and, figuratively, of minds weighed down by clutter. It is uncommon in modern English and is found mainly in dictionaries and word games.
