What does KNOLL mean in Scrabble?
noun
A small, rounded hill or mound rising gently from otherwise level or lower ground.
A knoll is modest in size compared with a true hill, usually low enough to climb in a few minutes and often standing alone in an open field or park. Landscape writing favors knoll over hill or mound when the shape is smooth and rounded rather than steep or rocky, and the word often marks a good vantage point for looking over the surrounding land. In American usage the phrase grassy knoll became widely known through discussion of the Kennedy assassination, though the word itself is far older and simply describes the landform.
