What does TRIGO mean in Scrabble?
noun
regional
Wheat, or a field sown with wheat, a word carried into English from Spanish in regions with strong Spanish influence.
Trigo keeps its Spanish form and meaning almost unchanged when it appears in English text, unlike words that have been reshaped to fit English spelling over time. It turns up mainly in older regional writing and in bilingual or Spanish-influenced communities, where trigo sits alongside the more usual English word wheat rather than replacing it. Because trigo never became part of everyday general English, most readers meet the word only in specialised word lists or in text that deliberately mixes Spanish and English vocabulary.
How TRIGO is used
A regional, Spanish-derived term for wheat, met mainly in older or bilingual regional writing rather than general English.
