What does GASMAN mean in Scrabble?
noun
British
A man whose job is to read gas meters or to install and repair gas supplies and appliances.
In British speech the gasman is the visitor who checks the meter, fixes a boiler or comes to investigate a smell of gas. The word dates from the days when each town had its own gas company and its own uniformed staff. Today the job is more often described with a neutral title, but gasman is still understood in everyday talk. Its plural is irregular, as with other words ending in man.
