Root Explanation

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.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who 'throws' ('warp') threads in weaving — that's why a warper is a person involved in that process.
