What does HOLLER mean in Scrabble?
verb
informal
To shout or cry out loudly, especially to call someone from a distance or to complain.
To holler is to raise the voice so that it carries, whether calling a child in for supper or warning a friend across a field. The word is especially at home in American speech and is a looser, rougher cousin of the more formal "shout". It is also a noun for the loud cry itself, and in the United States a holler can even be a small valley between hills. Folk singers use the word for a rough, swooping field call.
