What does MARBLE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A hard crystalline stone that takes a high polish, or a small glass ball used in children's games.
Marble forms when limestone is changed by heat and pressure, and its veins and swirls made it the favourite stone of sculptors and builders from ancient Greece onward. A small round marble of glass or clay is a separate meaning of the same word, and the game played with them has its own rules. The plural marbles also stands for the Elgin Marbles, and "to lose your marbles" means to lose your sanity.
