What does GAZER mean in Scrabble?
noun
literary
A person who gazes; one who looks steadily and intently at something.
A gazer looks at something for a long, fixed stretch of time, often out of wonder, admiration, or deep thought rather than a quick glance. The word is frequently combined with what is being looked at, as in stargazer, though it also stands alone for anyone lost in a steady stare. Older poetry uses it for someone transfixed by beauty or grief.
