What does TSADE mean in Scrabble?
noun
The eighteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, which represents a sound close to the ts in cats.
Tsade sits between ayin and qoph in the traditional order of the Hebrew alphabet, and its exact original shape has no single agreed origin story among scholars. English writers meet tsade mainly when they transliterate Hebrew words or discuss the alphabet itself, since English has no separate letter for the same sound. Word game lists keep tsade as a playable entry precisely because it names a letter rather than an object, in the same way aleph and gimel are entered.
How TSADE is used
Used almost only when naming or discussing the Hebrew alphabet, rarely in ordinary sentences.
