What does SIGHT mean in Scrabble?
noun
The physical sense that allows a person or animal to perceive light, color, and shape through the eyes.
Sight depends on light entering the eye and striking the retina, where signals travel along the optic nerve to be interpreted by the brain. Beyond the biological sense, sight also names a single act of seeing something, as when a landmark first comes into sight after a long journey. The word extends further still into figurative use, describing anything remarkable or worth seeing, such as a sight that draws crowds of tourists.
