What does CONKY mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A shelf-like fungal growth that forms on the trunk of a diseased or dying tree; a bracket fungus.
A conky is the hard, shelf-shaped growth that certain fungi produce on the side of a tree trunk once decay has set into the wood. It has no stem and juts out horizontally like a small ledge, sometimes one above another in tiers. Foresters treat a conky as a visible sign that the tree's timber is being weakened from within by rot. The word is also used loosely as an adjective for wood affected by this kind of decay.
How CONKY is used
Mainly a forestry and countryside term rather than everyday vocabulary.
