What does ADJOIN mean in Scrabble?
verb
formal
To be next to something and share a boundary or wall with it.
Adjoin is used for rooms, buildings, fields and other spaces that touch along an edge, so that one leads into the other or at least meets it directly. It is neater than saying that two places are side by side, because it implies actual contact. The verb needs no preposition when it takes an object: a kitchen adjoins a pantry. Legal and property writing often uses it, and so does everyday description of houses and land.
