What does BLANK mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Having nothing written, printed, marked or filled in.
Blank describes a surface, page or space that is entirely empty of content, whether it is a sheet of paper waiting for a signature, a screen with nothing displayed, or a wall without decoration. The word extends naturally beyond physical emptiness to describe a mind or expression with no visible thought or reaction, as in a blank stare. In everyday speech, blank also functions as a noun for the empty space itself, as when someone is asked to fill in the blank.
