What does ENMESH mean in Scrabble?
verb
To catch or tangle in a net, or to draw someone into a situation that is hard to escape.
The picture behind enmesh is a fish or bird caught in the fine cords of a net. People use the verb figuratively far more often than literally, speaking of those who become enmeshed in debt, scandal, a legal dispute or a family quarrel. It often appears in the passive, since the one caught rarely chooses it. The related forms embroil and entangle are close in feeling.
