What does PASE mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
In bullfighting, a single controlled sweep of the cape or cloth made by the bullfighter to guide the direction of the bull's charge.
Each pase is one movement of the cloth that draws the bull past the bullfighter's body. A sequence of skilfully linked pase movements is what spectators judge as elegant or clumsy. The word therefore names one unit of the performance rather than the whole fight.
