What does TETRI mean in Scrabble?
noun
A unit of currency in Georgia, equal to one hundredth of a lari.
A tetri functions in Georgia much the way a cent functions alongside a dollar, since one hundred tetri make up a single lari. The coin exists in several small denominations, and shoppers use tetri for prices too small to be worth a whole lari. Unlike many English plurals, tetri itself already serves as the plural form, so both one tetri and fifty tetri are correct rather than tetris. The word entered English through Georgian, which uses it as the name of the subordinate coin rather than as a general word for change.
