What does PITIER mean in Scrabble?
noun
rare
A person who feels or shows pity for someone else.
A pitier is simply one who pities, formed from the verb pity in the same way that a worrier is one who worries. The word turns up mainly in older or formal writing, describing someone moved by another's suffering rather than someone who merely feels sorry in passing. It is not a comparative form of any adjective; it names a person, not a greater degree of pity.
