What does ECHED mean in Scrabble?
verb
archaic
To have increased or added to something; the past form of the archaic verb eche, meaning to eke out.
Eche was an older spelling and relative of eke, meaning to add to or make last longer, and eched is simply its past tense, as when a poor household eched out a small store of grain over a hard winter. Modern English keeps only the phrase eke out, so eched now reads as a period spelling rather than current usage.
