What does SEASON mean in Scrabble?
noun
One of the four main divisions of the year (spring, summer, autumn, winter), each marked by characteristic weather and daylight patterns.
Season refers most literally to one of the four yearly periods produced as Earth's tilted axis changes the angle and duration of sunlight reaching each hemisphere, giving spring, summer, autumn, and winter their distinct temperatures and daylight patterns. Beyond the calendar, the word extends naturally to any recurring stretch of time defined by a particular activity, such as a growing season, a hurricane season, or a television season made up of a set run of episodes. As a verb, the same root gives season the sense of adding flavor to food or preparing timber for use, both drawing on the idea of a fitting or maturing period. Because the idea of a defined, recurring interval runs through all these uses, season functions as both a calendar term and a flexible word for any bounded stretch of time.
