What does GLAMOR mean in Scrabble?
noun
North American
An alluring, exciting charm that makes a person, place or thing seem attractive and desirable.
This is the common American spelling, while British writers usually keep the u and write glamour. The word began as a Scots variant of grammar, once linked with learning and then with magic spells, which is why an old sense is enchantment. Today glamor is used for the polished appeal of film, fashion and travel, and it often hints that the shine is partly surface.
