chared

Blackened by fire

Chared is the past tense of char, meaning to burn or scorch something until blackened: The fire chared the wooden beams.

The spelling with one r is less common than charred, which dominates in contemporary usage.

Separately, chared can be the past tense of char meaning to work as a charwoman or cleaning lady, though this use is rare.
