The answer
SINGE
What singe means
To burn something lightly or superficially with a flame or intense heat, often causing discoloration or damage to the surface without fully igniting it.
Where the word comes from
From Middle English *sengen*, meaning to burn or scorch. The word likely comes from Old English *sengan*, related to Old Norse *senga*, both descended from Proto-Germanic *sangjaną*. The root may be connected to singing or making a hissing sound, as singed fabric produces a hissing noise when burned. The modern sense of superficial burning emerged gradually through the Middle English period.
