What does ROPE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A strong thick cord made by twisting together strands of fibre or wire.
A rope is built from many thin strands twisted or braided together, which makes it far stronger than any single strand could be, and it is used wherever something heavy or dangerous needs to be pulled, tied, climbed, or held in place. Ropes appear on ships, on climbing walls, in barns and at circuses, and the material can be natural fibre, nylon, or steel wire. As a verb, to rope something means to tie or fasten it with a rope.
