What does EENSY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Very small in size; tiny, used as an informal intensifier similar to teensy or wee.
Eensy usually turns up doubled in the childish rhyme eensy weensy, where the repetition itself emphasizes just how small something is. Speakers reach for eensy instead of small or tiny when they want a light, almost playful tone, often while talking to or about children. The spelling varies a little from writer to writer, appearing also as eensie or teensy, but the meaning of extreme smallness stays the same.
