What does SEEDY mean in Scrabble?
adjective
informal
Shabby, run-down, or disreputable in appearance, especially in a way that suggests dishonesty or neglect.
A seedy bar, hotel, or neighbourhood looks worn out and slightly disreputable, the kind of place associated with shady dealings rather than respectability. The word can also describe a person's reputation or behaviour, calling someone or something seedy to suggest they are involved in dubious or unsavoury activity. In British informal speech, seedy can additionally mean feeling slightly unwell, a sense unrelated to the run-down meaning.
