You learn something new every day

So we have this lit­tle time-waster com­put­er game that is a bit like Bog­gle, in that you have to cre­ate words from a clus­tered bunch of let­ters. I was play­ing it, and in a des­per­a­tion move I spelled the word ZARF.

And it took it.

Hmmm, says I. So I end­ed the game and went to that great agglom­er­a­tion of knowl­edge, the internet.

What­taya­know, it is a word, and what’s more, I’ve used one and nev­er known what it’s called.
