Mis forMarker
A marker, marking pen, felt-tip pen or branded as a Texta or Sharpie in some countries, is something you use to draw or write with.
Markers have their own source of ink, and a soft tip. There are lots of different kinds of marker, for writing on whiteboards, overhead transparencies, paper, glass, and of course permanent markers versus erasable markers.
