What does SPENT mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Used up, exhausted, or having had all its force, energy, or usefulness drained away.
Spent describes anything that has given out everything it had to give, from a person collapsing after a hard race to a battery with no charge left. A spent cartridge or spent bullet is one that has already been fired and can no longer do further work, while a spent match has already been struck and burned out. The word carries a strong sense of finality, marking the point at which the usefulness of something has completely run out rather than simply run low.
