What does MARRER mean in Scrabble?
noun
rare
A person or thing that mars, spoils, or damages something else.
Marrer is built directly from the verb mar, to spoil the look or quality of something, with the ordinary agent ending -er added to name whoever or whatever does the marring. The word is rare in modern writing, which almost always reaches for a plainer phrase such as someone who ruins something rather than for marrer itself. It survives mainly in older texts, proverbs, and word lists rather than in everyday conversation.
