What does PEDDLE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To travel about selling small goods, or to sell something, often in a pushy or doubtful way.
The older sense belongs to the pedlar who went from door to door with a pack of wares. Today people most often peddle things they disapprove of, such as drugs, stolen goods, gossip or a dubious idea, so the verb tends to sound mildly scornful. A figurative use is common in politics, where critics say someone is peddling a theory or a rumour.
