Definition
A preference or choice; what you would rather do or have (usually used in the phrase 'I'd druther').
Etymology
From 'would rather' contracted and spoken as one word: would-ruther → druther. An informal American English word that developed from casual speech patterns in the 19th century.
Kelly Says
The word 'druther' is proof that language changes by accident—it started when Americans said 'would rather' so fast it slurred together, and then people started spelling it that way, and suddenly a new word was born.
