What does DRACK mean in Scrabble?
adjective
AustralianNew Zealandslang
Unattractive or dreary, most often said of a woman's looks or an outfit.
Drack most likely grew out of drab, tightened by casual Australian and New Zealand speech into a shorter, harsher-sounding word. It is used more about appearance and style than about character, so a drack dress or a drack hairstyle is a common pairing. The shortened form drac appears too, though drack is the more usual spelling.
