What does POUTY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Having or showing a pouting expression, with the lips pushed out in a sulky or petulant way.
A pouty face pushes the lips forward and down, a small, instantly recognisable gesture of sulking, disappointment, or mock displeasure. People describe both a person and the expression itself as pouty, and the word is often used affectionately about children or teasingly about adults putting on a dramatic sulk. In fashion and cosmetics writing, pouty also describes lips that look naturally full, without any hint of sulking at all. The word simply adds the adjective ending -y to the verb pout.
How POUTY is used
Common in everyday writing; used both literally for a sulky expression and, in beauty writing, for naturally full lips.
