What does TUSCHE mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A greasy black liquid used by printmakers to draw on a lithographic stone or plate, or to block out areas in etching and screen printing.
Tusche is the artist's drawing medium in lithography: it is brushed or spattered onto the stone and, being greasy, accepts printing ink while the bare stone refuses it. In etching and silkscreen the same fluid acts as a resist that keeps acid or ink away from the covered parts. The word is German for India ink and was borrowed along with the technique.
