What does RAKED mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Sloped or inclined away from the vertical, rather than standing straight up.
Raked describes something built or angled on purpose, not the action of gathering leaves with a garden tool. A raked stage in a theatre slopes upward away from the audience so that every row can see the performers, and raked seating rises in tiers for the same reason. Shipbuilders use the same word for a mast or funnel that leans back from vertical instead of standing straight, and architects apply it to a deliberately sloped roofline or windscreen.
How RAKED is used
Describes something built or set at an angle away from vertical, distinct from the ordinary verb sense of gathering with a rake.
- The raked stage let every seat see the actors clearly.
- Raked seating in the old theatre rises steeply toward the back.
