What does CATTLE mean in Scrabble?
noun
Domesticated bovine animals, especially cows and bulls, kept and bred for meat, milk, leather or labour.
Cattle is the standard collective word for cows, bulls, oxen and their calves raised on farms and ranches worldwide, whether for beef, dairy, hides or, in some regions, as working draft animals. Unlike most English nouns, cattle has no singular form of its own; a single animal is called a cow, bull, steer or calf depending on its sex and age, and the word cattle is always treated as plural. Ranching and agriculture depend heavily on cattle, and the word appears throughout farming, trade and even historical records of wealth measured in livestock.
