What does SENOR mean in Scrabble?
noun
A Spanish title of respect placed before a man's name or used alone to address him, roughly equivalent to Mr or sir in English.
Senor comes directly from Spanish, where it forms part of a set of titles that also includes senora for a married woman and senorita for a young or unmarried woman. English speakers borrow the word mainly when writing dialogue set in Spanish-speaking countries or when addressing someone in a deliberately courteous way. Unlike Mr, senor can stand alone as a polite way of getting a man's attention, similar to sir. English usage normally drops the accent mark that the original Spanish spelling carries over the n.
How SENOR is used
Used in English mainly in dialogue, travel writing or address involving Spanish-speaking people and places.
