What does STOOL mean in Scrabble?
noun
A simple seat without a back or armrests, usually designed for one person.
A kitchen stool, a bar stool and a piano stool all share the same basic shape, trading the comfort of a full chair for a compact design that fits under a counter or instrument. Some versions of a stool have three legs for stability on uneven floors, while others are simple padded boxes. A small stool is also used as a step to reach high shelves, doubling as both seating and a mild form of ladder. The word stool additionally has a separate medical and everyday sense referring to solid waste passed from the bowels, a meaning kept distinct from the furniture described here.
