What does SARTOR mean in Scrabble?
noun
literaryhumorous
A tailor; someone whose profession is making and altering clothing.
Sartor entered English directly from Latin, where the word literally meant one who patches or mends, and it survives today mainly as a deliberately old-fashioned or humorous stand-in for tailor. Writers reach for sartor when they want a slightly comic or elevated tone, often in the same breath as the adjective sartorial, which describes matters of dress and style. Because the word never became part of everyday speech, it now reads as a knowing flourish rather than a plain occupational title. Modern usage almost always signals irony or affectation rather than simple description.
