What does STORE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A shop or retail establishment where goods are displayed, kept and sold to customers.
A small neighbourhood store might sell just groceries and daily essentials, while a large department store spreads clothing, furniture and electronics across several floors. The related verb to store means to keep something for future use, and a warehouse used for that purpose is sometimes named a store as well. English keeps the phrase in store for something that is about to happen or is being kept ready, as in a surprise is in store for the winner. Online shopping has changed how people reach a store, but the word itself still describes any place set up mainly for selling goods.
