What does BOSKY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
literary
Covered with bushes, shrubs, or trees; wooded or shaded by thick growth.
A bosky lane runs beneath overhanging branches and thick undergrowth, dark and shaded the way an old wood might be in a novel. The word comes from the same root as bush and grove, and it has long been favored in literary description of pastoral, shadowy landscapes. Poets and novelists use bosky far more often than everyday speakers, who would simply say wooded or leafy.
