What does STOUT mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Solidly built and strong, either physically thickset in body or sturdy in construction; also, brave and resolute.
Stout most often describes something built to withstand pressure or wear, such as a stout rope, a stout fence, or a stout pair of boots. Applied to a person, stout usually means heavily or solidly built rather than tall or slender, though it can also praise someone's courage, as in a stout heart. The same word is borrowed as a noun for a very dark, full-bodied beer brewed with roasted malt, a sense that developed because such beer was once called stout in the sense of strong. Both the adjective and the drink share the same root idea of strength.
