What does CLASH mean in Scrabble?
verb
To collide or come into violent conflict, or, of colours, sounds or ideas, to fail to go together in a jarring way.
Clash covers a wide range from a literal noisy collision, as when cymbals clash together, to two armies or crowds meeting in physical conflict, to something more abstract like opinions, schedules or colours that clash because they sit badly together. A clash of colours in clothing is jarring to the eye in much the same way a clash of cymbals is jarring to the ear, which shows how the word keeps its sense of an unpleasant collision across very different situations. The noun a clash names the event itself, whether a fistfight, a match between rivals, or a scheduling conflict.
