What does SMACK mean in Scrabble?
verb
To strike someone or something sharply and loudly with the flat of the hand or another flat surface.
A smack is delivered with an open hand or a flat object rather than with the fist, and the loud, sudden sound it makes is part of the meaning of the word. People smack a table to demand attention, smack their lips to show they are enjoying food, or smack a child as an old-fashioned form of punishment. The same word can describe a light, playful gesture, such as a smack on the cheek, showing that the force involved is not fixed. English also uses smack informally for a sharp, decisive quality, as when someone hits a nail smack in the centre.
