What does METHS mean in Scrabble?
noun
Britishinformal
Methylated spirits — industrial alcohol treated to make it unfit to drink.
Meths is the ordinary British short form of methylated spirits, denatured with a bitter, poisonous additive and dyed a warning purple to stop people drinking it. The word is almost always used in this plural-looking but singular sense, and it survives most often in the phrase meths drinker, describing someone reduced to drinking the dangerous liquid for its alcohol content. Meths differs entirely from meth, the drug slang for methamphetamine, even though the two clippings share the same four letters.
