Rebutter

Rebutter, surprisingly isn't something you do to bread when you consider it's not been spread with a liberal enough amount of dairy goodness. 

It's actually a refutation (a word which probably deserves its own WWof theW post) or 'a defendent's reply to the plaintiff's surrejoinder'.



Sometimes I'm no help at all, am I?

  3. I've come across this word in crime novels with court case scenes.
