What does SLUMP mean in Scrabble?
verb
To fall or sink down suddenly and heavily, either physically, as a person into a chair, or in value or activity, as prices or sales.
A person who slumps drops their body weight down all at once, often from tiredness, illness or disappointment, losing the upright posture they had before. The same picture of a sudden, heavy drop is used for markets, economies or performance, which are said to slump when figures fall sharply after a period of strength. In both uses, slump suggests a drop that happens without much resistance or control, unlike a gradual decline.
How SLUMP is used
Common in everyday English for physical posture and equally common in business and economic reporting for a sudden fall in figures.
