What does DRAG mean in Scrabble?
verb
To pull something along a surface with effort, especially something heavy or unwilling to move.
When you drag a heavy box across the floor, you pull it along the ground rather than lifting it, usually because it is too heavy to carry; the same idea extends to pulling a reluctant person somewhere, as in dragging a tired child to bed. The word is also used for anything that feels slow and tedious, as when a boring meeting seems to drag on forever.
How DRAG is used
Very common in everyday speech, both for physical pulling and for describing something tedious.
- He had to drag the sofa up the stairs by himself.
- She dragged her suitcase behind her through the airport.
- Don't drag your feet, or we'll miss the bus.
- The meeting seemed to drag on for hours.
- They dragged the fallen branch off the road.
