Definition
A person who writes badly or has poor handwriting; someone with bad spelling or poor writing skills.
Etymology
From Greek kakos (bad) and graphia (writing), with the agent suffix -er. It names a person characterized by poor written expression.
Kelly Says
Before spell-check and autocorrect, being a 'cacographer' was genuinely embarrassing—historical documents reveal how much people were judged for their handwriting and spelling!
