What does TWICE mean in Scrabble?
adverb
Two times; on two separate occasions, or multiplied by two.
Twice marks something happening exactly two times, whether that is two repeated actions, as in reading a letter twice, or a comparison of amount, as in twice the size. It sits between once and three times in the small set of English words for counting occurrences, after which speakers usually switch to phrases like three times or four times rather than coining new single words. Twice can describe frequency over a period, such as visiting a place twice a year, or a simple doubling, such as a price that is twice what it used to be. The word is entirely ordinary and appears constantly in both spoken and written English.
