| Scrabble game originally created in 1938 under the name "Criss-Crosswords" by an architect named Alfred Mosher Butts. This game is a refinement of an earlier game Lexiko created, but it comes and how to play board games such as crossword puzzles. The game still uses the letters as Lexiko pieces are made based on the calculation of the frequency distribution using a variety of writing English letters, newspaper articles including The New York Times. Alfred Butts produce their own game and offer it to the big toy companies but not sold. In 1948, lawyer James Brunot, residents from Newtown, Connecticut bought the rights to produce the game "Criss-Crosswords" with a promise to give Butts a royalty from each unit sold. As a new owner, Brunot changed the name game to "Scrabble", a word in English which means "struggle to drudge". Brunot changed little boxes "bonus" on the game board, and simplify the rules of the game. Scrabble game was sold. One buyer is a Macy's department store who managed to lift Scrabble becomes a toy that consumers want to buy. In 1953, Brunot sold the production rights to the Scrabble game Selchow and Righter, because production capacity could no longer meet demand. Just as Parker Brothers and Milton Bradley, Selchow and Righter was one of the major toy manufacturers who once refused to buy the game Scrabble. In the United Kingdom and Australia, Scrabble began to be marketed J. W. Spear & Sons dated January 19, 1955. Company A. W. Spear & Sons is now a subsidiary of Mattel In 1986, Selchow and Righter sold the game to Coleco who then sold it again to Hasbro. - Bahasa Indonesia Version:
Permainan Scrabble mulanya diciptakan di tahun 1938 dengan nama "Criss-Crosswords" oleh seorang arsitek bernama Alfred Mosher Butts. Permainan ini merupakan penyempurnaan dari permainan Lexiko yang lebih dulu diciptakannya, tapi dilengkapi papan permainan dan cara bermain seperti teka-teki silang. Permainan tetap menggunakan keping huruf seperti Lexiko yang dibuat berdasarkan hasil perhitungan distribusi frekuensi penggunaan huruf berbagai tulisan berbahasa Inggris, termasuk artikel surat kabar The New York Times. Alfred Butts memproduksi sendiri permainan ini dan menawarkannya ke berbagai perusahaan mainan besar tapi tidak laku. Di tahun 1948, pengacara James Brunot, penduduk asal Newtown, Connecticut membeli hak memproduksi permainan "Criss-Crosswords" dengan janji memberi Butts royalti dari setiap unit yang terjual. Sebagai pemilik yang baru, Brunot mengganti nama permainan menjadi "Scrabble", sebuah kata dalam bahasa Inggris yang berarti "berjuang membanting tulang". Brunot hanya sedikit mengubah kotak-kotak "bonus" pada papan permainan, dan menyederhanakan aturan permainan. Permainan Scrabble ternyata laku dijual. Salah satu pembelinya adalah toko serba ada Macy's yang berhasil mengangkat Scrabble menjadi mainan yang ingin dibeli konsumen. Di tahun 1953, Brunot menjual hak produksi permainan Scrabble kepada Selchow and Righter, karena kapasitas produksi tidak mampu lagi memenuhi permintaan. Seperti halnya Parker Brothers dan Milton Bradley, Selchow and Righter adalah salah satu dari pabrik mainan besar yang dulu pernah menolak untuk membeli permainan Scrabble. Di Britania Raya dan Australia, Scrabble mulai dipasarkan J. W. Spear & Sons tanggal 19 Januari 1955. Perusahaan J. W. Spear & Sons sekarang merupakan anak perusahaan dari Mattel Di tahun 1986, Selchow and Righter menjual permainan ini kepada Coleco yang kemudian menjualnya lagi kepada Hasbro.
