What does STYLE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A distinctive manner of doing, making, or expressing something, often marked by particular choices of design, dress, or behavior.
Style covers everything from the cut of a person's clothes to the sentence structure a writer prefers, and it always points to a recognizable way of doing something rather than to the thing itself. A building can be built in a certain architectural style, a singer can perform in a distinctive vocal style, and a person can simply have style, meaning a confident sense of personal taste. The word can also work as a verb, as when a hairdresser styles a client's hair.
