I'm from the south and all my life have heard the word?
(rer ent) meaning spoiled. and I have always spelled it wrunt. Like, "that milk is wrunt!" Well, now I'm using it in a poem and the spellchecker doesn't recognized it..... Does anyone know a different spelling..?

Ruint or ru-ent is Southern dialect for the word "ruined."
BTW, It's OK to use it in a poem if you spell it phonetically and if you are using it for a certain effect, otherwise if you want proper English it must be "ruined."
