What does TIPPER mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person who leaves a small extra payment for a service, or a lorry whose load bed can be raised to slide the cargo out at the back.
Tipper has two everyday uses that have nothing to do with each other. In restaurants and taxis a good tipper is a customer who rewards service generously. On building sites and quarries a tipper is a heavy lorry that raises the front of its bed so gravel, soil or rubble pours out behind it. In British usage the vehicle is the more familiar meaning, while Americans usually say dump truck for it.
