What does TRACK mean in Scrabble?
noun
A mark, trail, or rough path left by or made for movement, such as footprints, a course laid out for racing, or a section of rail.
Track covers a remarkably wide range of related ideas, from the muddy track left by an animal's paw to the metal track that guides a train, and from an athletics track to a single track on a music album. Hunters and trackers read a track left in mud or snow to identify which animal passed and how recently, while athletes compete on a marked track designed for running events. The word also gives English the phrase to keep track of something, meaning to follow its progress closely, and to lose track, meaning to stop following it. Because the core idea is always a path or line that something follows, the many senses of track fit together even though they describe very different situations.
How TRACK is used
Very common in everyday speech, sport, transport and music, always centred on the idea of a path, trail or course.
