What does RELATE mean in Scrabble?

verb

To show or establish a connection between things, or to give an account of something, especially by telling a story.

Relate covers two related ideas: showing how one thing connects to another, as when a report relates income to spending, and simply narrating events, as when a traveller relates what happened on a journey. A further everyday sense describes feeling a personal connection with someone or something, as in saying that a reader can relate to a character's struggles. The word can also describe family connection, since people who are related share ancestry or marriage ties. All these senses share the same core idea of one thing being brought into contact or correspondence with another.

How RELATE is used

A very common word in everyday speech and writing, covering storytelling, personal connection and factual links alike.
