What does CHARM mean in Scrabble?
noun
A quality that makes someone or something attractive, pleasing or delightful to others.
Charm works quietly, making a person likeable through manner, humour or grace rather than through looks or achievement alone. The word also names a small trinket worn on a bracelet or chain, and an object or phrase once believed to carry magical power against harm. Advertisers and writers reach for charm to describe places and people that draw affection without obvious effort. In every sense the word points to something that pulls people in rather than pushes them toward a goal.
