What does NESTLE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To settle or lie comfortably and closely within or against something, often for warmth or shelter.
Nestle describes the way a person, animal or object settles snugly into a sheltered or comfortable position, as a bird nestles into its nest or a child nestles against a parent. It is also used more broadly for things that lie in a sheltered spot, such as a village that nestles among hills. The word carries a gentle, affectionate tone, often suggesting closeness, warmth or protection rather than simple physical position. Nestle can take an object, as in nestling a cup in one's hands, or stand alone, as in the kitten nestled by the fire.
