What does NOISE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A sound, especially one that is loud, unwanted, or disruptive.
People usually reach for the word noise when a sound gets in the way of something else, whether that is a conversation, a good night's sleep, or a clear radio signal. Engineers spend a great deal of effort trying to reduce noise from machines, traffic, and construction sites, since constant exposure can damage hearing over time. In electronics and data analysis, noise describes random interference that makes it harder to pick out the signal someone is actually looking for. Even ordinary conversation can turn into noise for someone who is trying hard to concentrate on something else.
How NOISE is used
Extremely common in everyday speech, covering everything from loud sounds to unwanted interference.
