What does DRAWL mean in Scrabble?
noun
A slow, relaxed manner of speaking marked by drawn-out vowel sounds, often associated with a particular regional accent.
A drawl stretches vowels and slows the pace of speech well beyond ordinary conversation, giving a lazy, unhurried quality to each sentence. In American English the word is strongly linked with Southern speech, though drawls exist in other regions and languages too. The same word works equally well as a verb, describing the act of speaking in this stretched-out way.
