What does MEADOW mean in Scrabble?
noun
A field of grass, especially one kept for hay or lying on low ground near a river.
Meadows are usually mown for hay or used for grazing, and they are often found on flat land beside streams. Wildflowers grow freely in an old meadow, which is why the word carries a pleasant, pastoral feel in poetry and song. It is gentler than "pasture", which suggests land used mainly for livestock.
