What does RIDGY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Marked with ridges; having a surface that rises and falls in narrow raised lines.
Ridgy describes any surface broken up by a series of narrow raised lines or ripples, whether that is a ridgy hillside shaped by erosion, a ridgy fingernail, or a ridgy potato chip cut with grooves along its length. The word is a simple, informal extension of ridge, formed the same way as other -y adjectives built from a noun describing shape or texture, such as bumpy or lumpy. It is used casually to describe texture by touch as well as appearance, so a ridgy surface can be felt as well as seen. Ridgy appears mostly in everyday, descriptive speech rather than in precise technical writing, where a more specific term is usually preferred.
