What does PIGPEN mean in Scrabble?
noun
North American
A fenced enclosure or small shed where pigs are kept; also any very dirty or untidy place.
On a farm the pigpen is the sheltered yard where the animals sleep and feed, usually with a muddy floor and a sturdy rail around it. Because pigs have a reputation for mess, the word is also used as a scornful name for a room left in disorder. British speakers more often say pigsty for the same thing.
