What does COPSE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A small group of trees growing close together, or a thicket of small trees and undergrowth.
A copse is smaller and denser than a wood or forest, and it often forms at the edge of a field or along a hedgerow. Historically, many a copse was deliberately managed by coppicing, in which trees were cut back regularly so that new shoots would grow quickly for firewood, fencing, or tool handles. The word survives mainly in descriptions of the English countryside.
