What does UNREAL mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Not real; seeming to exist only in imagination, or lacking a genuine basis in fact.
Unreal describes something that feels false, imaginary, or dreamlike, whether it is a fictional scene, an implausible story, or a moment so strange it seems detached from ordinary life. In casual speech, unreal also stretches to mean astonishing or hard to believe, as when someone calls a stunning view or an amazing performance unreal. Both uses share the same core idea: the thing described does not match the ordinary, expected sense of what is real.
How UNREAL is used
In everyday conversation, unreal is often used informally as an exclamation of amazement, in addition to its literal sense of not real.
- The special effects made the battle scene look almost unreal.
- Waking from the dream, she still felt the world around her was unreal.
