What does TREAT mean in Scrabble?
verb
To act or behave toward a person, animal, or thing in a particular way; also, to apply a process or substance to something, or to provide someone with food, entertainment, or another pleasure at one's own expense.
To treat someone kindly means behaving toward them in a caring way, while a doctor who treats a patient applies medicine or care to cure an illness. The same verb covers a chemist who might treat a fabric with a waterproof coating, showing how broadly the word stretches across manners, medicine, and industry. When used with the sense of generosity, as in to treat a friend to dinner, treat shifts toward paying for someone's enjoyment. The related noun a treat, meaning something pleasant given or received, grew directly out of this generous sense.
