QUOS
About QUOS
QUOS is a valid 4-letter word in OUTLIER, and one of the few with no English entry in Wiktionary - the dictionary a word game accepts is wider than the one an encyclopaedia keeps.
No definition is on file, so none is guessed at here.
OUTLIER scores every word on how unusual it is, and that number is not published. Working it out at the board is the game.
