What does GAPPY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Having gaps or spaces where something is missing, especially between teeth.
Gappy most often describes a smile or a set of teeth with a noticeable space between them, but it can also describe anything with irregular gaps, such as a gappy hedge or a gappy fence missing several boards. The word gives a light, informal way of pointing out a missing piece without sounding too clinical. It is common in casual descriptions of appearance and in everyday remarks about things that should be continuous but are not. A gappy record collection, for instance, is one with several missing albums.
