What does XED mean in Scrabble?
verb
To have crossed out, or marked with an X — the past form.
Xed is what happens when a letter turns into a verb, and the spelling is the awkward part: x'd, x-ed and xed all appear and none of them looks settled. The action is much older than the typewriter, but the word belongs to it — crossing out on a screen leaves no mark to name.
How XED is used
Past tense of x. Also written x-ed and x'd.
