What does ENGLUT mean in Scrabble?
verb
archaicliterary
To swallow greedily, or to fill something to the point of overflowing.
Englut combines the prefix en- with glut, the same root behind glutton, and describes eating or absorbing something so hungrily that nothing is left over. Older English writers used it both for a person who would englut a meal in moments and, more figuratively, for the sea or a storm swallowing up ships and sailors. The word has largely been replaced by glut, gorge, or devour in modern speech, but it survives in literary and historical texts.
