What does PLUMP mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Having a soft, rounded, well-filled shape; slightly fat in a way that often seems healthy or pleasant.
Plump usually carries a gentler tone than words such as fat or stout, and people often use it about babies, cushions, fruit, or birds to suggest a pleasing fullness rather than a criticism of size. A ripe tomato or a well-fed chicken might be described as plump, and the word works equally well for people, animals and objects. Plump can also serve as a verb, meaning to make something fuller or rounder, as when a cook plumps rice by soaking it, or when someone plumps up a pillow. As an adverb, plump can additionally mean directly or suddenly, as in falling plump into a chair.
