What does GLUEY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Sticky and thick like glue, or resembling glue in texture or consistency.
Gluey describes any substance that clings and stretches the way glue does, whether it is half-dried paint, overcooked rice, or thick mud underfoot. The word carries a slightly unpleasant edge, suggesting a mess that sticks to fingers or tools rather than a pleasant stickiness. Cooks and craftspeople alike use gluey to warn that a mixture has become too thick or too sticky to work with easily.
