What does MORSEL mean in Scrabble?
noun
A small piece or amount of food, or more generally a small fragment of anything.

Writers extend it beyond food to describe any small fragment, such as a morsel of information or gossip. The word can also work as a verb meaning to divide something into small pieces.
