What does MAGIC mean in Scrabble?
noun
The power to make apparently impossible things happen by using special words, rituals, or supernatural forces.
In stories and folklore, magic lets characters cast spells, transform objects, or defy the ordinary laws of nature, and belief in real magic has shaped countless cultures throughout history. Stage magic uses the same word for a different craft entirely: skillful tricks, misdirection, and practiced illusion designed to look impossible without any supernatural cause. The word also works loosely as an adjective, describing something that seems wonderful or enchanting, as in a magic evening.
