What does SHARE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To have, use, or experience something together with another person or group.
People share physical things such as food, tools, or living space, and they also share more abstract things such as opinions, credit, or responsibility. Digital culture added a further sense: to share a photo or article online is to post it so that others can see and pass it along. The word implies that more than one party holds or experiences the same thing, rather than one person keeping it entirely.
