BEAT [beet] verb, beat, beat·en or beat, beat·ing, noun, adjective verb (used with object) 1. to strike violently or forcefully and repeatedly. 2. to dash against: rain beating the trees. 3. to flutter, flap, or rotate in or against: beating the air with its wings. 4. to sound, as on a drum: beating a steady rhythm; to beat a tattoo. 5. to stir vigorously: Beat the egg whites well. BATTER [bat-er] verb (used with object) 1. to beat persistently or hard; pound repeatedly. 2. to damage by beating or hard usage: Rough roads had battered the car. High winds were battering the coast. These things happen to too many people, and often the decision of whether they happen at all or not is made by the wrong people i.e. those who are not present for the beatings and batterings. Personally I no longer care who believes what. The definitions are there.
