IPA: /ˈwɔːrpər/
KK: /ˈwɔːrpər/
A person or thing that bends or twists something out of its normal shape.
The warper adjusted the fabric to ensure it was perfectly straight.
Warper → The word 'warper' is derived from 'warp' (from Old English 'weorpan', meaning to throw or cast) and the suffix '-er' (meaning a person who). A warper is a person who throws or casts something, often in the context of weaving or fabric production.
Think of someone who 'throws' ('warp') threads in weaving — that's why a warper is a person involved in that process.
