Definition
To scorch or burn slightly; to damage or char the surface of something with heat.
Etymology
From be- (prefix to cause or make) combined with scorch; this archaic verb followed Middle English patterns of intensifying action verbs with the be- prefix.
Kelly Says
Bescorch is delightfully violent in sound—it suggests aggressive burning rather than accidental browning, which shows how prefixes could shade verb meanings toward intensity or thoroughness.
