This word was played against me in Scrabble on the first turn! Hitting the double-letter bonus with the 'F' and getting the double-word at the board's center, my opponent scored 30 points. I was familiar with the word in German from having heard it in Cabaret alongside French and English approximations (etranger and stranger) in the opening song, but I am dismayed to find that it is Scrabble-legitimate.
