What does SIXTY mean in Scrabble?
noun
The whole number equal to six multiplied by ten, one more than fifty-nine and one less than sixty-one.
Sixty sits exactly between fifty and seventy on the number line, and reaching it after fifty-nine is what makes a count read as sixty. Clocks and calendars build on the number constantly, since there are sixty seconds in a minute and sixty minutes in an hour. People also use sixty loosely to mean an age or a stage of life, as in a person who has turned sixty.
