What does FEAST mean in Scrabble?
noun
A large, elaborate meal, often prepared to celebrate a special occasion, or a day set aside for religious celebration.
A feast is a meal on a grander scale than everyday eating, prepared for a wedding, a harvest, a victory or another occasion worth marking, and shared with family, guests or a whole community. In religious calendars, a feast day is a fixed date set aside to honour a saint or an event, such as the feast of Saint Patrick. The word is also used as a verb, to feast on something, meaning to eat it with great enjoyment, and figuratively for taking great pleasure in anything, as when the eyes feast on a fine view.
