What does TEETHE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To grow the first set of teeth, as a baby does.
When a baby begins to teethe, the first small teeth push through the gums, usually from around six months of age. The process is often blamed for drooling, fussiness and a need to chew on everything within reach. Notice the final e: the noun is teeth, but the verb is spelled teethe and its sound is stretched out.
