What does SUNLIT mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Lit or illuminated by sunlight.
Sunlit simply joins sun and lit to describe anything bathed in natural daylight, whether the object is a room, a field, a mountain slope, or a stretch of open water. Writers reach for the word most often in descriptive passages, where it sets a bright, warm, and usually cheerful mood, in contrast with words like shadowy or overcast. Because the word is a straightforward compound, it can attach to almost any noun that can plausibly catch daylight, from a sunlit kitchen to a sunlit meadow. The word describes only the presence of light, not warmth or temperature, so a cold winter morning can be just as sunlit as a hot summer afternoon.
