What does FIX mean in Scrabble?
noun
A repair, or a supply of something badly wanted.
The senses of fix all spread out from one idea — making something hold still — and they went a very long way: a mend, a dose, a rigged result, a position worked out at sea. Which is meant is settled entirely by the words around it, and no two of them feel related any more.
