Scrabble Word of the Day -- DIMER

This is another little-known word that can actually be useful. While not a frequently-played word, "DIM" is obviously an easy word for anyone to play, and it's not a stretch for "DIME" to be played from there.

If "DIME" is played in one direction (i.e., DIM is horizontal and some plays a word ending with E down, turning DIM to DIME), you can always add an R to head yet another word in another direction.

More than that, though, DIMER is a word you can add to further with any of the following words:

DIMERIC
DIMERISM
DIMERIZE
DIMERIZED
DIMERIZING
DIMERIZES
DIMEROUS
