What does COMPT mean in Scrabble?
adjective
archaic
Neat and trim in appearance; spruce.
Compt is an old adjective meaning neat, trim or carefully arranged, borrowed from a Latin word for something arranged or adorned. It shares a root with the ordinary word comb, though its meaning drifted toward tidiness of dress or manner rather than hair. By the twentieth century compt had fallen out of everyday use and now appears mainly in older literature or historical writing. It should not be confused with the unrelated verb count, despite the similar sound.
