What does NORMAL mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Conforming to what is usual, expected, or typical; free from irregularity or disorder.
Normal describes whatever falls within the ordinary range for a person, a process, or a situation, from a normal day at work to a normal body temperature. In geometry and physics the same word takes on a precise technical sense, naming a line or force that meets a surface at a right angle, and mathematicians and scientists still use normal this way alongside its everyday meaning. Because the word covers both casual and technical ground, context usually makes clear which sense a speaker intends.
