What does BEAUT mean in Scrabble?
noun
informalAustralianNew Zealand
An excellent or particularly fine example of something; an informal shortening of beauty, often used as an exclamation of approval.
Beaut is a clipped, casual form of beauty that developed strongly in Australian and New Zealand English, where it can describe almost anything impressive, from a well-built house to a perfectly timed joke. Speakers often use it as a standalone exclamation, simply shouting beaut to show enthusiasm or approval, in much the same way other varieties of English might say great or brilliant. The same word can also work as an adjective, as in "a beaut little car", meaning an excellent or attractive one. Its casual, cheerful tone marks it firmly as everyday speech rather than formal writing.
