What does AGAIN mean in Scrabble?
adverb
One more time, or once more after something has already happened.
Again signals repetition, whether of a single action, as in he knocked again, or of a state returning after a change, as in the lights came on again. It also appears in set phrases such as then again, which introduces a contrasting thought, and again and again, which stresses that something keeps recurring. Because it depends entirely on context to show what is being repeated, again rarely stands as the main point of a sentence on its own.
How AGAIN is used
Extremely common in everyday speech; often paired with never in never again for emphasis.
