Boser

/ˈboʊzər/ noun

Definition

One who boses (an archaic or dialect term); possibly relating to dialectal or regional usage, though the exact definition is obscure in modern English.

Etymology

Likely formed from a verb 'bose' with the agent suffix '-er,' but 'bose' itself is either archaic, dialectal, or occupational in origin. The word appears in historical texts but lacks clear modern documentation.

Kelly Says

Some English words become so obscure that their original meanings are lost to time—'boser' is a linguistic ghost word that hints at a forgotten occupation or action from Middle English!
