What does PADDED mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Lined, stuffed or covered with a soft layer so that it cushions or protects.
Padded things are built to take a knock or to be comfortable: a padded envelope guards a fragile parcel, and a padded jacket keeps out the cold. The word grows out of pad in the sense of a soft cushion, and it is often heard in padded cell, a room whose walls are cushioned for safety. It can also describe writing stretched with needless filler, though that sense leans on the verb.
