What does STAGE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A raised platform, typically in a theatre, on which actors, entertainers, or speakers perform.
A stage sits at the front of a theatre or hall so that an audience can see everyone taking part in a performance. Actors move across the stage, deliver lines, and interact with props while onlookers watch from seats facing it. The same word also names a distinct step in a longer process, so a project or an illness can pass through several stages on the way to its end. Because both senses describe a point set apart from what comes before and after, English speakers extended stage from theatre to almost any structured sequence of events.
How STAGE is used
Used literally for a theatre platform and figuratively for any distinct step in a process, career, or illness.
- The actors walked onto the stage as the curtain rose.
- The project reached its final stage ahead of schedule.
