What does SPOKEN mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Expressed aloud in words rather than written down; delivered by mouth.
As an adjective, spoken describes language that exists as sound: the spoken word, a spoken test, a spoken warning. Teachers set it against written language when they compare how people talk with how they write. The word also turns up in compounds such as soft-spoken or plain-spoken, where it describes a manner of speaking. It is also the ordinary past participle of speak, but the adjective is much more than a verb form.
