What does ASLEEP mean in Scrabble?
adjective
In a state of sleep, or, of a limb, numb and without normal feeling.
A person described as asleep has stopped being awake and aware, whether napping briefly or sleeping through the night. English also stretches asleep to describe a foot or arm that has lost feeling after being pressed against something for too long, an unrelated but common everyday use. Writers sometimes use asleep figuratively to suggest that someone is not paying attention, as in a driver who seems half asleep at the wheel. Unlike related words such as sleeping, asleep is mainly used after a verb rather than directly before a noun.
