What does CHORE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A routine task, especially a small domestic job done regularly to keep a household running.
Chores are usually unglamorous but necessary jobs such as washing dishes, taking out the rubbish or mowing the lawn, and the word chore often carries a mild sense of duty or tedium. Children are commonly given chores as part of learning responsibility, and the same word extends loosely to any tiresome obligatory task outside the home. A single overdue chore can feel just as tedious as a whole list of them, and the plural chores is far more common than the singular chore in everyday speech.
How CHORE is used
Everyday word, most often used in the plural for household duties, occasionally singular for one specific task.
