bespeckle
Scatter spots across
Bespeckle means to mark or cover with small spots or specks, typically scattered irregularly across a surface.
It functions much like speckle but with the intensive "be-" prefix suggesting a more thorough or deliberate dotting.
Mud bespeckled his trousers after the hike.
The word appears mostly in literary or descriptive contexts where a writer wants to evoke a dappled or flecked appearance.
