What does BACCY mean in Scrabble?
noun
informalBritish
An informal British word for tobacco, especially as it is smoked in a pipe.
Baccy softens the sound of the fuller term, the way many British slang expressions trim a syllable for daily chat down at the local or in the shed. Smokers especially reach for it when talking about buying, rolling or sharing a smoke, and it survives best in dialogue meant to sound old-fashioned or working-class.
