What does FRIED mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Cooked in hot fat or oil until browned or crisp; informally, exhausted, overwhelmed, or not thinking clearly.
Fried most literally describes food cooked quickly in hot oil, from fried chicken to fried rice, where the heat browns the outside while the inside stays tender. The same word drifted into informal speech for a person or a piece of electronics pushed past its limit, so a student can feel fried after exams and a circuit can be fried by a power surge. Both uses share the idea of something subjected to too much heat or strain to keep working normally.
How FRIED is used
The food sense is neutral and everyday; the exhausted or damaged sense is informal and depends heavily on context.
- She served fried eggs and toast for breakfast.

- They ordered a plate of fried plantain to share.
