What does STREEL mean in Scrabble?
verb
Irishinformal
To walk or trail along in a slow, aimless, and untidy way.
Streel describes a particular kind of movement, loose and dragging, as if the walker has no destination and little energy to get there. Irish English uses it both for people, who streel down a lane with no purpose, and for clothing or hair, which can streel behind someone in an untidy trail. A related noun sense calls an untidy, slovenly person a streel, especially a woman whose clothes look neglected or dragged through the mud. The word carries a mild note of disapproval, suggesting carelessness rather than simple slowness.
