What does ELEVEN mean in Scrabble?
noun
The number that comes after ten and before twelve, written 11 or XI.
In cricket and football the word also names a team, because each side fields eleven players, so a school can have a first eleven and a second eleven. It is one of the odd number words that does not follow the pattern of the teens, since it comes from an old English phrase meaning one left over after ten. In clock talk it can stand for the hour, as in the train leaves at eleven.
