What does CAUSE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A person, event, or condition that produces a particular effect or result.
Finding the cause of a problem means tracing an effect back to whatever produced it, whether that is a mechanical fault, a decision, or a natural event. The same word also names a goal or movement that people support and work toward, as when volunteers say they are fighting for a cause. Both senses of cause share the idea of something that sets other things in motion.
