What does LOCKET mean in Scrabble?
noun
A small hinged case worn on a chain around the neck, made to hold a picture or a keepsake.
Lockets are usually of gold or silver and open like a tiny book to show a photograph, a curl of hair or a short message. They are often given as gifts to mark a birth, a wedding or a loss, which is why they appear so often in stories as a hidden clue to someone's past. The word comes from an old term for a small lock or catch, because the hinged cover fastens shut.
