What does HAT mean in Scrabble?
noun
A covering for the head, usually with a brim.
A hat and a cap divide by the brim: one has it all the way round and the other does not. The phrase about wearing a different hat is younger than it sounds — it dates from the middle of the twentieth century, when holding several jobs at once became ordinary.
