What does SADHE mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A name for the eighteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, also spelled tsade or tzade.
Sadhe represents a sound close to the English ts, and in the traditional gematria numbering system tied to the Hebrew alphabet it stands for the number ninety. The letter appears in two forms depending on its place in a word: a regular form and a longer final form used only at the end of a word. English transliteration varies a good deal, so the same letter turns up in print as sadhe, tsade, tzadi, and other spellings. Students of Hebrew and biblical Hebrew grammar meet the letter early, since it appears in many common words.
