What does LILIED mean in Scrabble?
adjective
literary
Covered with, or thickly grown with, lilies.
Writers reach for lilied when they want a single word for a pond, bank, or shore where lily blossoms grow in abundance, rather than spelling out a longer phrase. The form appears almost only in descriptive or poetic prose, picturing still water framed by pale flowers rather than any technical botanical sense. It differs from a plain phrase such as full of lily blossoms mainly by being more compact and more literary in tone.
